Controlled Fire counts, and anti-biotics that were engineered by humans are human inventions. But you cant claim that oxygen is mans greatest invention....can you?

I will have to go with the printing press. Mostly because my husband is a printer. And without the printing press I wouldn't have all the nice things I have today.

Indeed. Religion is the greatest man made concept/invention in my opinion. It has united uncommon people under the sancity and protection of an affiliation, gave ignorant people a set of religious morals to abide by, promoted social harmony, gave hope to countless millions, and created a sense of belonging, just to name a few.Apotheosis said:
On the other hand ... religion has helped to fuel wars, battles, crusades, massacres, genocides, and have otherwise seperated humanity by religious affiliations.
I think it would be more accurate to say that religion is the greatest and most awesome man made concept/invention.

Religion wasn't an invention but a belief. Without the printing press Religion wouldn't be what it is today. The printing press was what sold the Christian religion to the people, afterall the Bible was the first book to be printed.

The thermostate. If your too hot, turn it cooler. If your too cold, turn it warmer. You can live in any climate you wish with just the touch of the dial.

Art. It sparks the imagination to invent everything.

A belief that is generated, much like as if it were invented. Religion gives a set of social laws, helps people deal with deaths of loved one and grief, helps to grow a morally sound conscious, and all that other "good stuff."Pussyfoot Mouse said:
I would still say religion, but if not that, my choices would have to be narrowed down to ... (don't really know if anyone has said these or not) music, language, art, and mathematics.
