March of the Scientismists

Have a moral or ethical problem with a particular line of scientific inquiry? Just get out of the way. That according to the "Hinxton Consortium", an international group of medical researchers and ethicists. Here is what they say?

Societies have the authority to regulate science, and scientists have a responsibility to obey the law. However, policy-makers should refrain from interfering with scientific inquiry unless there is a substantial justification for doing so that reaches beyond disagreements based solely on divergent moral convictions.

Anyone see any problems with that?
