I’d add to this that to allow no ethics or morality in science research is a scary suggestion indeed.

I can think of plenty of examples of where a lack of ethics and morality led in scientific research and it ends up being the stuff sci-fi horror movies are made of. Human experimentation comes to mind.....

Did somebody mention embryonic stem cell research?

I will be accused of fulfilling Godwin's Law, but I think this is one of those cases where an extreme example shows why absolutism is the road to Hell.
