RESPONSIBILITY AND THE SCIENTIST

Are scientist responsible for their Works? This is an important question and I think we should try to answer it. Scients discover lots of useful information everyday and we can proceed in technology thanks to their studies. There are many advantages of development of science and technology in terms of making our lives easy. In contrast, there are many disadvantages of proceeding in science and technology. We can see its bad affect easily in Hiroshima and Nagazaki. Remember that in 1940s thousands of people was killed because of atom bomb in these places. The scientist who contributed to discover the information of making atoming bomb responsible for their study. Maybe they are not free or rational, maybe they dont know their studies’ consequences. If the scientists contributes to make atomic bombs rationally and freely, they are responsible for their studies and they should be judged. I think scientists should convince to accept responsibility for their work. If there are punishment for scientists who use science for bad aims, they can be pressured to study science morally and bad affects of science and the technology cannot develop. Indeed, I think we should educate our students with a common moral principles. A person who has a good education in terms of morality, doesnt think producing harmful products for Money, status,… etc. I think, we should take care about firstly morality, than science and technology for our future. If not, we may not find a safe world in the future to be alive .
