      Here’s a relevant piece by @briandavidearp against Sam Harris’s claim that science can tell us about what’s right or wrong: http://blog.practicalethics.ox.ac.uk/2011/11/sam-harris-is-wrong-about-science-and-morality/ …

      IMO science can explain the processes of making moral decisions but morality itself it cannot, at least in its current form

      Exactly. If you are researching the best way to save lives, you are researching how to enact a moral principle based on your own moral code. That is: saving lives is worth doing.

      Science can tell you so much about how to do it but it cannot be used to back up why.

      Here's a depressing example from my TL. Science cannot tell us (who) to kill or not kill. It's the moral code (and law) that needs to be changed, certainly not more empirical data gathered.https://twitter.com/hardsci/status/956597828616298496 …

      Making "ethnic adjustments" to IQ scores to justify executing people of color is layering a horror on a horror on a horror. But rebutting unscientific racism with unscientific anti-racism isn't going to cut it https://psmag.com/social-justice/how-iq-tests-are-perverted-to-justify-the-death-penalty …

      I will have to catch up tomorrow because I need to get up early. Amused that they use gish as a non-word since for me it has a meaning, which is also amusingly relevant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gish_gallop …

          My only qualm is it's published in Quillette. I really think it is a fascist rag which uses a few moderate/good voices to whitewash the rest of the pieces which are questionable at best.
