If caveman didnt invent fire.

Would we have fire now? Or would we have missed out that Invention and just made something better?

What i mean is, like we had HD, then went to blue ray. Maybe if we missed out fire we could of made something better. Like maybe more powerful fire.

Responses?

i think we would've figured it out eventually.

...Nobody "invented" fire; it was a discovery that certain materials produce heat when chemically combined with oxygen. :P

If cavemen hadn't discovered fire then we'd have to wait until Chuck Norris stole it from Zeus.

How do you make more powerful fire?

Were going to figure it out sooner or later.

They probably could've bummed some off that guy Prometheus.

Yeah, or that Franklin didn't invent electricity. :roll:

Get your act together. Fire happens out in nature without our intervention. We would just observe it and replicate it, like our ancestors did. Man didn't invent fire, it just learned from nature how to start it, and to get benefits from it (light, heat, defense, cooking, etc).Neon-Tiger

Haha...yeah, get your act together...

Fire isn't an invention...It's a reaction.

Thats for the inventors to work outtidus_swain

By rewriting the laws of nature such that the energy output from the chemical reaction is higher than what it is today?

Those are some pretty powerful inventors.

I believe what the TC (is that the right term?) is trying to ask is what today's society would be like without our discovery of fire. Basically, if we never managed to use fire, what would we be like now?

Personally, I'm not sure. Perhaps we'd be less advanced, Perhaps we'd be more. There's a lot of ways to look at it. For instance, one could say that without that basic building block of discovery, there would be no incentive to continue advancement. On the other hand, it could be said that mankind would have taken a whole new path. Instead of paying attentionto basic discoveries, we would have made more advanced discoveries. Think about it; if we weren't bothered by fire, we could have been making solar power during the Medieval Times! :lol:

Saying someone invented fire is like saying someone invented sunlight or rocks.

I'd imagine it would be the same as whoever invented water.

Well, one that doesn't involve a discovery that came centuries later (electricity), for starters. :P
