Can science be a source of morality?
A question that has vexed scholars for a long time is the source of human beings' sense of ethics and morals. Some would claim that our sense of morality is divinely inspired; others, such as this author, claim that can't be the case, as there likely is no such thing as a divine to be inspired by. And, inevitably, someone will say: "All right then, if God is insufficient, then can science provide a basis for morality?" Well... can it?
