Darwin





what responsibility do we have for the understanding of science?

Well from my understanding of the article darwin questioned how everything worked to realize that humans weren't the only complex beings, also of humans we have a certain complexity. and if we understood how everything worked we could co-exist. He was caring about all living things and i think he just wanted everything to be healthy and happy.

What role should scientific inquiry and scientific knowledge play in our own society?
Well with a better understanding of ANYTHING you can make things better. With a better knowledge of how stuff works within genetics we can help cure or treat a lot of dieses like sickle cell anemia or downsyndrome. Knowing how other living things work can help every living thing. Like if we use solar panels and hybrid cars we are helping all of the enviorment and we know that because of the new technologies and the enviroment.

How should science influence our decisions, laws, and culture?
It should influence us to preserve life on earth and influence laws to encourage people to preserve the life. And finally the culture of a place can be determined by there environmental status. For example the US might be more advanced in Industrial stuff and give off a lot of CO2 emissions and then a random country might have people living in a jungle in a Forrest using the natural resources and giving back to the earth. The culture is different and it effects the decisions and laws.



BAM.
