Modern Technology
Technology is a systematic knowledge and action, usually of industrial processes but applicable to any recurrent activity. Technology is closely related to science and to engineering. Science deals with humans' understanding of the real world about them—the inherent properties of space, matter, energy, and their interactions. Engineering is the application of objective knowledge to the creation of plans, designs, and means for achieving desired objectives. Technology deals with the tools and techniques for carrying out the plans
Global Warming, Pollution etc.
They are some disorders or to specific, products from technology that destroy a humans immune system because of bacteriae and viruses.
Points of reasoning why it does more harm than good
1.) Dependence of peoples (all around the world) in technology
2.) side effects which lead to disastrous end
3.) age bracket goes down
4.) Effects of technology to humans (kids --> adults)
and
5.) More lost than gained
These lines of reasoning will be explained at round 2 and if possible i can do the rebuttal.
Waiting for someone to take my challenge (and I hope that you will surely love to debate with me and I hope that i will to)

As a classical historian, there was really no way I could turn down this debate.
Your definition of technology is acceptable, and ironically it is only fit to define modern technology. I would, however, like to define the phrase modern technologies as being technologies that began to develop in the late age of discovery, through the age of reason and into the industrial era and now the post-industrial era which is frequently referred to as the info age, or computer age in spite of the lack of accuracy both of those terms bear. Or, the last 350 years.
1.) The level of technology cannot be blamed for the mishaps of humanity, or the destruction of our civilization, species, or environment. The fault does not lie within the tool, but
