Do you think Science has a moral stance? I'd like to hear some thoughts on that, the whole homosexuality debate has been beaten worse than a slow racehorse.
It has everything to do with morality. It changes the way we view the world and the people that inhabit the world.

Everything from transhumanism to interstellar space travel to creation of WMDs has a profound impact on the way we see ourselves and how we treat others. I personally find this (not so) new detached view of science being a rational and unbiased way of viewing the world to be terrifying. Very "Brave New World," which if you haven't read, I would certainly recommend.
