It was a very bad thing. Pandora's box can never be closed again. Well John, it's quite likely that someone said exactly that when the very first charge of gunpowder was ignited. And likely again when the first arrow left it's bowstring...the first club connected with someone's skull...etc... Heck, the Pope tried to ban crossbows because they would "destroy civilization". Never knew the cross bow was considered to be such a terrible weapon. I know the long bow was for a time though. The armored cavalry types didn't like the idea of being knocked off their horses on to their tin cans from 80 yards out by mere peasant folk. What was the world coming to? SMH
