Science VS Ethics ‘The more science advances‚ the more religion will decline.’ To what extent do you agree? (2008) ‘Science and religion will always conflict.’ Discuss. (2002) Should scientific research be dictated by ethical concerns? Do moral standards impede the progress of science? ‘Science cannot stop while ethics catches up.’ (Elvin Stackman) What is your view? Do moral judgements compromise the true spirit of scientific inquiry? Studies of scientists’ belief in God

centuries science kept itself aloof from warfare. It was not until the Chinese invented the gun-power that science became an active and powerful associate of war. It is curious that the gun-power was invented for a very innocent and harmless purpose to be used in firecrackers. The evil nature of man‚ however‚ soon began to misuse the gun-power for destructive purposes. And in sheer disgust we speak ill of science for all those acts of cruelty. Endowed with tremendous power modern science is yoked

“Nonsense on Stilts: How to Tell Science from Bunk‚” Pigliucci shows examples of pseudoscience and how it differs from science. Throughout the reading‚ my concept of pseudoscience and science would have to be that pseudoscience is something that is not based off nor have any scientific background or findings. It is something that people believe will work‚ but has no true scientific backing and it is not supported by industries or the Government. While on the other hand‚ science is based on scientific findings

“Science: a body of knowledge based on facts led by systematic experimentation‚ and analysis‚ and the formulation of general principles” (Geddes and Grosset‚ 2007) vs. “Indigenous knowledge: is an area of study that focuses on the ways of knowing‚ seeing‚ and thinking that are passed down orally from generation to generation” (Geddes and Grosset‚ 2007). Science and indigenous knowledge for me are two nouns that seem to mean the same thing but putting the two definitions next to each other‚ it’s remarkable

Science – or‚ with respect to this writing‚ natural philosophy – is concerned with observing‚ collecting and analyzing natural phenomena in order to form a collective body of knowledge that defines‚ explains and attempts to predict the respective phenomenon being studied. Although science‚ at least in its contemporary definition‚ did not begin until sometime during the fifteenth century AD1‚ the intricacies that form its core have technically been occurring since arrival of Homo sapiens on the planet

Science/technology and Romanticism I believe that there is a balance that exists between science and romanticism because everybody will eventually have to view something in a scientific way‚ whether it is a particular profession or simply an activity which they are in contact with every day. That being said‚ one particular occupation is not all inclusive‚ so not everybody will see scientifically or technologically about the same items or activities. For example‚ Mark Twain said‚ “No‚ the romance
