Is evolution more or less science then anything else? Do they really require evolution to meet all the same standards? Sometimes you have science making weapons that harm people. Then you have science there trying to heal them and put them back together. Is that the way science is in general? Do they create a problem and then try to solve the problem they create? For me that is where religion comes in. Clearly there are issues and problems that science can not solve and I have found religion has the answers and solutions for what is beyond the ability of science.
Is evolution more or less science then anything else?
Yes. It is more science that a cup cake.
Do they really require evolution to meet all the same standards?
Who are "they", and the same standards as what?
Sometimes you have science making weapons that harm people.
Pretty sure people make weapons, science being an abstract concept without hands.
Then you have science there trying to heal them and put them back together.
Probably not the same science though.
Is that the way science is in general?
No.
Do they create a problem and then try to solve the problem they create?
Are these two theys the same they you mentioned earlier? Not sure on this one. It depends on who the theys are.

Glad my reality is not measured by your yardstick.

No.

Scientists try to answer questions and solve problems, generally speaking.

Science is just a tool, though a very useful one. Scientists have ethical standards that they must follow, since science is neutral in terms of morality. These standards are implemented by state and federal laws, industry/ university guidelines and scientifc organizations and journals.

Evolution is not science, it is a theory that, so far (and probably will never be), has not been proven. Science is what is used to either prove or disprove a theory.

If you think science proves anything you do not know much about science.

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not, knows no release from little things; Knows not the livid loneliness of fear, nor mountain hights where bitter joy can hear the sound of wings. How can life grant us boon of living, compensate for dull gray ugliness and pregnant hate unless we dare the soul's dominion? Each time we make a choice, we pay with courage to behold restless day, and count it fair.

Science is nothing more then the search for knowledge. It is neither good or bad in and of itself. How that knowledge is applied is up to each and every one of us. To me it is not that terribly different from religion. Some use their religion to help others. Some use it as a means of control and hurt. The good or bad is in us, not in the tools used to apply it.
