What best describes the limits of science?

Answer 1

Science can't answer questions about values. For example, there is no scientific answer to the questions, which of these flowers is prettier? Or, which smells worse, a skunk or a skunk cabbage?

• Science can't answer questions of morality. The problem of deciding good and bad, right and wrong, is outside the determination of science.

• Finally, science can't help us with questions about the supernatural.

Answer 2

• Science can't answer questions about value. For example, there is no scientific answer to the questions, "Which of these flowers is prettier?" or "which smells worse, a skunk or a skunk cabbage?" And of course, there's the more obvious example, "Which is more valuable, one ounce of gold or one ounce of steel?" Our culture places value on the element gold, but if what you need is something to build a skyscraper with, gold, a very soft metal, is pretty useless. So there's no way to scientifically determine value.
• Science can't answer questions of morality. The problem of deciding good and bad, right and wrong, is outside the determination of science. This is why expert scientific witnesses can never help us solve the dispute over abortion: all a scientist can tell you is what is going on as a fetus develops; the question of whether it is right or wrong to terminate those events is determined by cultural and social rules--in other words, morality. The science can't help here.
• Finally, science can't help us with questions about the supernatural. The prefix "super" means "above." So supernatural means "above (or beyond) the natural." The toolbox of a scientist contains only the natural laws of the universe; supernatural questions are outside their reach.

Answer 3

Because science only accepts something as true when there is indisputable evidence supporting it.

Science has limitations because by its very nature it is open-ended. The process of science itself never brings a question to complete, absolute truth. If a theory or law at the fundamental level goes unchallenged for centuries, it is probably because 1) we have happened upon a truth of nature, or 2) we have not yet asked the right question that will expose the theory or law as wrong or incomplete. The process of science cannot distinguish between these two possibilities; it can only question.

Answer 4

The main limit of science is that everything that happens cannot be explained. Some things are simply phenomenon, and the reasons they happened are unclear.

Answer 5

Limitations of science and technology include the fact that everything that exists cannot be measured or seen. There are also things that cannot be fully explained.

Answer 6

No because science is what people need to find cures and come up with new technology

Answer 7

B. Science cannot answer religious questions.
