"Scientists are just people and as such, they are subject to the same temptations and failings as the rest of us."

What does that have to do with:

"It is science you drive to work in and science that allows you to make your post. it is science that protected your children from smallpox, polio, and infection which killed most people before science.

It is science that gives you the fine life you live and all your conveniences.

it is science that allows you to work a 40 hour work week rather than from dawn to dusk and live in a family which usually lost half their kids by the age of 5 during the period before science.

From 400 AD to the age of enlightenment (science) life was pure misery for most folks.

They called the time you seem to wish for, a time before science, The Dark Ages!"
