Science versus Ethics

People who obey social disciplines and general principles are respectable, yet their behaviors and deeds may not be characterized as ethical. Should we consider habitual deeds moral? If science and ethics cannot unite, it is better to say that ethics begins where science ends.

Ethical problems are constituted at least in part by disagreement in attitude, while scientific problems are constituted only by disagreement in belief. The function of ethical inquiry is at least in part to coordinate or settle attitudes, while the function of scientific inquiry is to coordinate or settle only beliefs. Ethical language, then, must have features, namely,emotive meaning, that make it apt for coordinating attitudes, while scientific language need only have features, namely,descriptive meaningthat make it apt for coordinating beliefs. The linguistic methods for resolving ethical disputes must be grounded at least in part by the relations among beliefs ETHICS IN RELATION TO OTHER while those for and attitudes, Wednesday, January 4, 2012 SCIENCES 4 resolving scientific disputesPresented be guided only by need by: Jovelyn E.

According to Kant,
...Ethics calls for patience and confidence. The moral characteristics modeled by the pioneers of knowledge (wisdom, bravery, self-control, and justice) were ethics, not their outcome Ethics in its true sense precedes science, technique, and peoples relations.
According to Albert Einstein,

The most beautiful and deepest experience a man can have is the sense of the mysterious. It is the underlying principle of religion as well as all serious endeavors in art and science. He who never had this experience seems to me, if not dead, then at least blind In this sense, I am religious
According to Marquis De Sade and Denis Diderot,

whenever wisdom and science are separated from ethics and ethical ends, they act against themselves and turn to violence and savagery.

The very existence of an ethical world depends on the human capacity for conscious design. What allows humans to live in a moral world is our ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and to act upon that distinction to transform both ourselves and our world for the better.

Think ethically and scientifically

You are in a boat. Four people fall overboard: a female baby, an older woman, an older man, and a baby boy. You cannot save them all. Who do you save and why?
