Comment What can science do? (Score 1) 135
I think that one of the greatest failures of modern society is reliance on science to answer metaphysical questions. You cannot look to science for the solution to existential questions. Morals, ethics and values cannot come from science. Your article, though very good, dances around the answers because it is more difficult to believe in a religion than to fault science for not being a religion. Have you read Umberto Eco's "Travels in Hyperreality"? A very good book about all things Disney-esqe. Good piece.
