In this week’s article I found myself contradicting it in a few things. I want to point out that I am ok with the fact that scientist do a lot of experiments especially if it's in our favor.

It’s as if they are tempting them to accept whatever they are doing to be ok. Therefore, I like what CRISPR does. Though they are times when they should have a reality check and ask…

Industries and associations such as the tobacco industry and NFL are known to protect their money and reputation. Any claim made against them could cause them to fall apart. When scientists claim that second hand smoking is harmful or that football players are at risk of brain damage, the tobacco industry and NFL will attempt to falsify the claims without proper evidence.

Human Values,” Joseph Rotblat advocates that scientists should be extremely concerned with the ethical consequences of their work. He maintains the belief that while the purpose of science is to expand human knowledge, it is critical that the general public understands that scientific research has much to do with the welfare of individuals and state politics. However, an analysis of this article will reveal that the ethical responsibility that scientists have should not deter them from their…

Disinterestedness, and Organized Skepticism. Universalism is the idea that a scientist should reject all their individual differences in favor of having an understanding, all-considering, objective view on the world. Communism is the idea that all scientific knowledge and progress is shared, and that a scientist should strive to make scientific progress for the greater good and fame rather than capital gain. Disinterestedness means that a scientist should have high moral integrity, putting…
