"Science does not offer one guidance for how to live" <---- WRONG.
July 21, 2014 at 5:34 pm
Science does in fact recommend certain conduct for how one ought to live. These include:
Free and open questioning of all claims anyone makes
Not accepting anything on the mere basis of "authority"
Basing knowledge on a rigid, methodological empiricism
Changing views when the evidence demands so
What else could be included?

Strict accountability for one's work. If a scientist is caught falsifying data, stealing/plagiarizing others' work, or committing any kind of professional fraud, he/she is finished. There are no grey areas and no second chances.

Both science and personal morality offer a very useful guidance on how to live. Who the hell came up with that argument? And let's not forget science also improves our living far more than religion ever has and ever will..
