The Ownership of Science

[Brian37]

Nobody "owns"  scientific method. But it is also wrong to use science to point to a religious club. A computer works in Japan, Iran, Australia, and America. Planes fly into every country. Vaccines work in every country. It is true that religious people can and do value science, but ethical scientists do not bastardize scientific method just to act as a billboard ad to point to their club. 

The children's hospital "St Jude" may seem well intended, and it does try to cure childhood cancer. But the name alone implies, "look what we did, there for the Catholic Jesus is the one true God". That part I do not like. It is great they want to save kids from cancer, but there is no God trying to save them.

But I have over 20 years of debate online seen arguments from Jews and Muslims and Hindus and Buddhists whom all argue that science points to their club. Point being, scientific method is not about supporting one's own personal bias, but objectively seeking out answers regardless of personal bias.

Sounds like you hate the word “hope”.

I don't hate the word "hope" at all, but I do hate bullshit.
