Is science moral?

Answer 1

Sure.
What can be more moral than believing in science?

Answer 2

Science is concerned with nature. It investigates our experience to arrive at the truth. What is interesting to science is always an issue for us, an answer we need to fill in the physiognomy of our knowledge.

Of course it is moral.

Every bare, abstract attempt at defining the truth is a fundamentally moral act. The truth has more rhetorical force than any other linguistic device, besides the absurd (which only reveals the truth of the opposite after all).

The truth is not a valueless term, it is the most hyperbolic form of value. The truth commands and organizes our action -- the false, only under the deluded pretense that it is true.

What turns up as true depends on our technique, in part.
Anyone fearful of the outcomes, of the power science generates in proving laws of nature, are justified in their fear of science.

But nobody in science is talking to you.
You don't matter. Your morality is a joke.
The experts will decide for you, whether you realize it or not.

Answer 3

"moral" is a relative term - depending on who you're speaking to - whereas science is the quest for universal truths. most reputable scientists make an effort to remain honest and objective as they pursue truth, and go to great pains to verify any learnings again and again before publishing them. often, the champions of human morality - religious institutions - are far from objective, making broad, sweeping claims about the nature of the universe and man, and rejecting outright any contradiction.

in cases where science contradicts various religions and theologies, science is accused of being an "immoral" practice that undermines faith.

it is my belief that no faith should deny the discoveries of science; rather, religions should incorporate and support scientific findings, or risk being reduced to primitive and closed-minded superstitions in the minds of their thinking followers.

is science "moral?" historically, it's been more benevolent and less hateful than those that have dictated morals to us from their various faiths; it's been more objective and self-scrutinizing than nearly any government that holds us to their legal version of morals; science may be the only pure morality.

or they may just be a bunch of damned heathens.

Answer 4

Moral is a personal set of values that is unique to each individual, as well as sort of standard of behavior in society.

By nature, scientists don't factor in morality or the lack thereof in their work or research. They base all their facts on just that, facts. Not an intangible set of values that may or may not be agreed upon by the general populous.

Answer 5

Science is a method; called the hypothtico-deductive method. Your question is analogous to asking; " is reading moral "?

Answer 6

Science is the search for the truth in our universe. Truth is very moral ! Ok

Answer 7

People are moral (or not) science is information.

Answer 8

Science is numbers, science is dead, just like the big bang without God. Science is not moral, it's just a stone tool.

What it says is very true. There have been many 'scientists' who have resorted to various decietful means in order to further their own cause/s -- whether for monetary reasons, or those of fame. So every one needs to bbe very careful Which scientists they listen to!

Answer 10

It depends on what the exact question is. Science only uncovers laws of nature that have always existed we just didn't know about them. Scientists peel the skin off the orange to see what is inside, they don't invent the orange.
