The problem I have with this guy is that he thinks science should just test every question without thinking about the consequences or looking at the history of this kind of science. Scientists and engineers have ethical responsibilities as well.,(reply>), @JimBob1937 I completely respect your opinion and understand where you’re coming from. I just personally find it unethical to ask questions like “is being gay biological or psychological” maybe not this question specifically tho. I mean that’s why they don’t allow human experiments a lot,(reply>), While ethics should certainly be part of science and engineering (and it is part of the education and certification processes in a lot of places), I don't think it is their responsibility to worry about the consequences if there are good and bad sides. Meaning, most things have good and bad uses, and if the intent behind the research is the good, then that is fine in my view. Unfortunately, since things are a double edged sword, this means that it can be used for bad too... but that is just about everything, hence, it is too constricting to limit yourself by that alone. If you do limit yourself this way, you miss the opportunity for a lot of good for fear of the bad.
