Scientific Morality! It's about time!

Scientific Morality! It's about time!
The work of neuroscientist Sam Harris about The Science of Morality have been widely criticized. The question remains however if such objections are valid or not.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_of_morality

Considering the subjective limitations of Higher Education and normative morality, thinking outside the box might just be the way to solve the worlds problems.

I tend to agree that morality can not be subjected to the God idea.
Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education.
Bertrand Russell

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd.
Bertrand Russell
