The scientific view can help us with the “means” but not the “ends”. Any stance on ethics can only be bolstered by science, but such a stance must grow from a philosophical root.

How do you think most scientists choose ethical positions? Do you think it's a conscious, deliberate choice?

What are the most popular philosophies of ethics?

From Durant's great summary: "The fundamental problem of ethics: what is justice? Shall we seek righteousness, or shall we seek power? Is it better to be good, or to be strong?"

I guess Christians would say righteousness and Nietzsche would say strength.

I probably would have said strength at one time, but presently I'm partial to righteousness
