It is inevitable that as technology develops so traditional cultures must be lost. Technology and tradition are incompatible – You cannot have both together. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the statement? It is undeniable that technology is advancing at an incredible pace and it is eliminating some traditional cultures but it is not logical to consider them incompatible. Some traditions are of stone age manners and still exist in the golden era of intellectuality and education. Ergo it is inevitable that progress of science and technology gradually annihilate them. Without taking those old-fashioned ways of thinking into consideration, traditional cultures and technology can co-exist and even complete each other. For instance, traditions obligate us to behave in respected manners while we are with the elderly. Technology introduces numerous ways of communication with them allowing us to both show them our respect and care towards them. Newer generations can teach older ones the new materials that technology brought along and this can be a positive point for technology too. The more users trying to be acquainted with technology the better it is for society. Apart from behavioral aspects, many find traditions interesting and for that reason they travel to visit those places. This can be a positive point for that destination financially and even in terms of reputation. By using the internet and technology people find these places and wonder about them. So not only is not the technology not of any harm to traditions but also rather it can be a tool to attract people towards it. To sum up, I can firmly say that technology and traditions are not necessarily rivals. Sometimes technology can be a great help to put an end to some illogical traditions but it is not fair to generalize this idea to all traditional cultures.
