Question: Do you think any form of science is wrong for any reason? and if so, what is it?

babybel, a blast from the past. Your name makes me hungry.
Yes. There was a pseudoscience called eugenics which most people think about in terms of the Nazis. This involves selective breeding of people to produce a ‘master-race’. The idea is that you breed out all undesirable qualities by determining who should reproduce with who. It can also mean killing off or sterilising people you don’t want to reproduce.
I think this is morally and ethically wrong. Plus see what happens to pedigree dogs (health-wise).
It is recent history:This was only made illegal in Oregon USA in 1983 -

Hi babybel…science that misleads people into believing life threatening scenarios would be top of my list:)
