We could survive without them, but we wouldn't be comfortable without them. That's the difference between us and beasts. We shouldn't have to evolve based upon surviving to exist on the top of the food chain. We should be evolving based upon how advanced and prosperous our society develops to be. 1

Do we technically need them? No. But this generation (and most of others) has fallen in love with them, and I doubt they're going to give them up any time soon. It's become a required part of our society. If we all had it forcibly taken away, then the human race would probably adapt but not without throwing a few tantrums along the way. :) 1

TV, cell phones, and iPods: no. The television and iPod are for pure entertainment purposes, and cell phones are not necessary either. However, the computer is a must for all people. The reason is because we live in the Age of Information. Television is bombarded with biased news channels, and this becomes the only way the average person obtains information. Computers, on the other hand, allow for free information (or almost free) via the Internet. So, in order to maintain a nice tab on world affairs, a computer is necessary. |
