Science is all around us and it's not just about messing with it, it's also about understanding it so only strict puritans could probably try to argue against its actual study or worth as a whole.

In my view, science has it's own ethics and morals- just like any religion. You must think the way scientists think, accept what it produces, and live accordingly, or you're not one of them.

I always thought it was supposed to be. Keep personal morals out or the research. Keep research ethical and directed.
