Also, we need barriers related to quality, otherwise you get shit like Andrew Wakefield trying to sell his alternative vaccine, and in the process creating the modern antivax movement
Science that isn’t ethical science is a huge problem we can’t just wave away, and science that isn’t good science is also a huge problem we can’t just wave away.
On the other hand, good science that is also ethical science can be immensely useful when it helps to describe the world and predict things that could happen accurately.
Well, I wouldn’t say all barriers…
Ethical matters, such as experimentation on animals and especially humans, need barriers in place. We don’t need another Josef Mengele
But I agree with the intended sentiment
Also, we need barriers related to quality, otherwise you get shit like Andrew Wakefield trying to sell his alternative vaccine, and in the process creating the modern antivax movement
On board with both of you.
Science that isn’t ethical science is a huge problem we can’t just wave away, and science that isn’t good science is also a huge problem we can’t just wave away.
On the other hand, good science that is also ethical science can be immensely useful when it helps to describe the world and predict things that could happen accurately.
