Omu myaka egi, ebitabo bingi ebirikushoboorora aha miteekateekyere y’abo abatarikwikiririza omuri Ruhanga bikanyire. Ebitabo ebi bishemeize abantu baingi baatandika n’okubihaajanaho. Aha bikwatiraine n’enshonga egi, omuhangu omwe orikwetwa David Eagleman akahandiika ati: “Abashomi abamwe nibateekateeka ngu . . . abanyasayansi nibamanya buri kimwe.” Kandi akongyeraho ati: “Kwonka abanyasayansi abarungi n’abo abarikwikiriza ebiteekateeko ebindi, kandi omurimo gwabo nigutwariramu okujumbura ebisya.”

Emyaka mingi enyima, abanyasayansi abaine etalanta bakozire eby’okutangaaza barikuteeraho kusherura eby’okugarukamu by’ebibuuzo ebigumire ebirikukwata aha buhangwa. Kwonka abamwe, bakozire enshobe nyingi omu kucondooza kwabo. Isaac Newton akaba ari omwe aha banyasayansi ab’amaani. Akooreka oku amaani agarikukurura ebintu kubigarura ahansi garikuhwera ensi, enyonyoozi, n’ebizinga kwetoorora. Akajumbura gumwe aha muringo gw’ebibaro ogwaizire kuhwera munonga omu kujumbura kompyuta. Kwonka, Newton akeega n’eby’okuheesha okurimu emiguruko omu kuteeraho kuhindura rusasi n’ebindi byoma kubiihamu ezaabu.

Emyaka erikurenga 1,500 Newton atakabaireho, Ptolemy Omugriika orikwega eby’omu mwanya akajumbura eby’omu mwanya arikukoresa amaisho ge gonka. Akaba ayetegyereza eby’omu mwanya omu bwire bwa nyekiro kandi akaba ari omuhangu aha kuteera maapu. Kwonka akaba naikiriza ngu ensi niyo yaabaire eri entima y’ebintu byona. Omushaija orikwetwa Carl Sagan nawe orikwega aha ntwaza y’eby’omu mwanya akahandiika ahari Ptolemy ati: “Abo boona abaabaire nibamwikiririzamu bakaba bahabisiibwe kumara emyaka 1,500, ekirikworeka ngu tihariho buhame ngu abanyabwengye tibarikubaasa kwikiriza ebigwire.”

N’obunaku obu abanyasayansi nibatunga oburemeezi nibwo bumwe omu kuteeraho kwabo. Mbwenu shi hariho obu baribaasa kushoboorora gye ebirikukwata aha nsi n’eiguru? N’obu turaabe twine kumanya okutunguuka oku sayansi ekozire n’oku erikutugasira, twine n’okumanya obugarukiro bwayo. Omuhangu Paul Davies akeetegyereza ati: “Okuteeraho kusherura entebeekanisa nungi erikushoboorora omu bwijwire ahari buri kintu, tikurumu matsiko goona.” Ebigambo ebyo birimu amazima agatarikubanganisibwa ngu: Abantu tibarikubaasa kwetegyereza gye ebihangirwe. N’ahabw’ekyo abanyasayansi baaba nibaikiriza ngu nibabaasa kushoboorora buri kimwe ekiriho, nikiba kiri eky’obwengye kubeegyendesereza.

Baibuli neegamba aha kutangaaza kw’ebyahangirwe eti: “Reeba, ebyo nibyo, kwonka n’otw’aha rubaju omu mitwarize ye, kandi n’ebi tumuhuriraho ni bikye munonga nk’okugambirana omu kutu.” (Yobu 26:14) Hakiriyo bingi ebi abantu batarikubaasa kumanya kandi bakeetegyereza. Ebigambo by’Entumwa Paulo, ebyahandiikirwe emyaka nka 2,000 enyima, na hati bihikire: “Yeimwe! obutungi bwa Ruhanga, obwengye bwe n’okumanya kwe ka bitaine bugarukiro! Emicwere ye n’emitwarize ye tibirikubaasa kumanywa.”—Abarooma 11:33.
