Essay # 2: Science

Mohammad Yonis

Science

Originally, I always imagined science to be a fact-based subject. I believed there was no second guessing science. That everything was proven by trial and error using the scientific method. After thoroughly investigating science and its’ process, I have completely changed my views on it. Now I feel scientist do not care about humans and the environment as much as they do money. Also, the products such as medicine, vaccines, and other cures are not tested or proven enough to be applied to humans. I believe the science industry has changed mainly because it is now money driven. Another factor that changed my views on science is considering the people within the industry and their motives, biases, and actions. With the money driven, biased, and selfishly influenced scientist of today I believe there is soon to be a “scientific revolution” in which almost all of science will be replaced by machines in a factory. As shown in the film the Promised Land, the new science industry cares very little for the environment and a lot more for their money. During the movie characters Matt Damon and Francis McDormand are sent to Pennsylvania, which at the time was struggling economically. Their employer, Global Crosspower Solutions sends them out to the people giving them only the information they knew could convince the people and hiding the facts that would turn them away. This money driven company does not include the fact that the format they use to obtain the gas, really hurts the environment. Killing their cattle, grass, and other crops as chemicals are infused into the ground in order to get to the gas. It only took one brave man, Mr. Kinney who had done his research enough to educate the people on the real process and to convince them the company did not care for them, but for the money. A lot of scientist today rely on

    Catholic and Judaism are considered opposite religions, yet they share very similar rituals and ceremonies. A Catholic child typically around twelve or thirteen years old goes through their confirmation. This is a ceremony where the young adult promises to follow with the religion and continue to learn about the faith. In the Jewish faith when a girl is twelve and a boy is thirteen they celebrate their Bah Mitzvah if they are a girl or Bar Mitzvah if they are a boy. This ceremony is also when the young adult promises to follow their religion and stay close to and learn more about their faith.…

    a) I definately agree with this statement and how science is ever changing. The scientific method begins by asking a question about something. After asking a question the next step is to form a hypothesis or educated guess. A repeatable expieriment is then created to test said hypothesis, and a large amount of data is collected. Data collection then leads Scientits to analyze the data and come up with a conclusion to see if the hypothesis was proven correct or incoreect. If the hypothesis is proven in correct more tests and questions must then be asked. Science is great in the fact that it is not concrete and changes when new information is gathered. Instead of condeming new thoughts that could oppose a theory Science accepts these oppositions and builds off of past failures. Failure is not a sign of defeat in the eyes of Sciecne but rather a victory because we now know something is false and are on the right track to discovering something we couldn't explain.…
