Who Are You Calling Anti-Science?

“Einstein’s scientific authority is unquestioned. When he, Szilard, and the community of physicists came out against the use of the very technology their genius helped to build, they were never accused of being “anti-science.” Their opposition was recognized as morally and ethically based, even by those who disagreed with them. Sadly, today’s medical and biological community seems wedded to the idea that the mere ability to gain knowledge by doing a thing makes it right to do so. The moral circumspection of their professional forebears is missing.”
