Science by itself has no moral dimension. But it does seek to establish truth. And upon this truth morality can be built.
In short it is not that evolutionary naturalists have been less brazen than the scientific creationists in holding science hostage but rather that they have been infinitely more effective in getting away with it.
Science is based on the possibility of objectivity on the possibility of different people checking out for themselves the observations made by others. Without that possibility there is no empirical principle capable of deciding between different arguments and theories.
As it turns out what looks like science sometimes is not.
So one reason the science educators panic at the first sign of public rebellion is that they fear exposure of the implicit religious content in what they are teaching.
If you publish a scientific paper it is very hard to start a nationwide debate about something. If you do this in a movie you can start a debate. We like to create a bridge between those two worlds - film and science.
We in science are spoiled by the success of mathematics. Mathematics is the study of problems so simple that they have good solutions.
There are so many stories to tell in the worlds of science fiction the worlds of fantasy and horror that to confine yourself to even doing historical revisionist fiction whatever you want to call it - mash-ups gimmick lit absurdist fiction - I don't know if I want to do that anymore.
It does not just happen. It is disclosed by science that practically one-half of trained intellectual resources are being mobilized for murderous purposes.
I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it to be or it can be very simple entertainment and I'm all for very simple entertainment. Every now and then we all need to come home veg-out watch something and not think too deeply about it. It's what you want it to be. We tend to steer clear of being pedantic it's entertainment first otherwise we'd be on a lecture circuit.

Math is sometimes called the science of patterns.
I'd always wanted the show to be more reality based science fiction something along the lines of The Day the Earth Stood Still which I consider to be the classic science fiction film.
I read Popular Mechanics Popular Science Reader's Digest... I read some responsible journalism and from that I form my own opinions. I also happen to be intelligent and I question everything.
Mathematical science is in my opinion an indivisible whole an organism whose vitality is conditioned upon the connection of its parts.
The further a mathematical theory is developed the more harmoniously and uniformly does its construction proceed and unsuspected relations are disclosed between hitherto separated branches of the science.
How thoroughly it is ingrained in mathematical science that every real advance goes hand in hand with the invention of sharper tools and simpler methods which at the same time assist in understanding earlier theories and in casting aside some more complicated developments.
I've always been a fan of science fiction films and I've never been able to put my particular spin on it.
I'd always been a science fiction enthusiast.
I think Junior is certainly a science fiction premise as is Twins as is Dave beyond Ghostbusters.
1988 I also received from the city of Vienna the cross of honour for art and science. These titles and the various honors mean a great deal to me most of all for the reason that they would mean a great deal to my parents too.
That the way to achieve higher standards of living for all is through science and technology taking advantage of better tools methods and organization.
When I was a kid I loved 'The Curse of Frankenstein ' 'The Creeping Unknown ' 'X: The Unknown.' I love 'Forbidden Planet ' 'The Thing from Another World.' They were science fiction/horror movies generally.
Nevertheless as is a frequent occurrence in science a general hypothesis was constructed from a few specific instances of a phenomenon.
I'm pretty focused on my career and if it comes down to hanging out with somebody or learning my lines it's gonna be learning my lines.
