It is debatable whether scientists should have a responsibility of their tasks. Some people think that scientists need to care all of their discoveries due in order to protect protecting human beings if their works affect to people's lives life negatively. However, I believe that scientists do not have responsibility of their discoveries even for the negative outcomes because using their invention is depend depends on people's the users' purpose and considering the possible adverse effects prevents scientists from freely discovering. thinking of negative affect make scientists hesitate to discover.
First of all, the results of scientists' discoveries are not always the same corresponds with their aims. When they invent or study of something, their goals would be not harmful for human beings. Actually, people who want to use their results for specific purpose especially for their profits cause of negative impacts. For instance, Nobel, one of the world renowned scientist, invented Dynamite for breaking stones at mines. However, unlike his purpose, people abused it as a weapon and a lot of people were killed by it. His innocent aim that to help people to work more efficiently and productively productivity were was misused unexpectedly by greedy people. Therefore, scientists do not have to feel in guilty because negative effects from scientists' discoveries make are caused by people who abuse their work
Second, in order to encourage scientists to focus on their tasks, people should not ask responsibility to them even if it brings negative influence the results are not good.
Science is one of the creative works compared with any other fields thus they should feel free whenever they study. Otherwise they would hesitate to step on a new field. It definitely affects people's life lives directly because people miss a great chance to live more conveniently convenience with their discoveries. Since the significant goal of science is challenge and creativity creative, not moral matter, scientists should not be criticized by the society about their any tasks even the result is unexpectedly negative.
To sum, by misusing scientists' discoveries that were made to purpose of inventions is for upgrade people's life, scientists do not have to feel in guilty if their works have of the possible negative impact. Also, they should freely discover and invent be free of their result in order to not hesitate hesitating challenging a e of new field. |
