Question -

Attempt to formulate your ‘moral’ views on the practice of science. Imagine yourself stumbling upon a discovery, which has great academic interest but is certain to have nothing but dangerous consequences for the human society. How, if at all, will you resolve your dilemma ?



Answer -

Scientific discovery reveals a truth of nature. Therefore any discovery, good or bad for mankind must be made public. The discovery which appears to be dangerous today may become useful to the mankind later on. In order to avoid the misuse of scientific technology, we must built up a strong public opinion. Thus scientists should do two things

  1. To discover truth and
  2. To prevent its misuse.
