Is it wrong to live a life guided purely by science?

All hat say: It's not wrong; it's just incomplete. Science deals with the physical world, which needs dealing with, including our bodies. But there's also our inner lives, our feelings, emotions. Those need dealing with too. For that, people have turned to religion and philosophy mostly, some psychology, but it remains largely an ignored dimension with little common interest, study, or discussion. I recommend getting into it - imo, nothing is more relevant than how we feel and what makes us feel that way. Trouble with religion is that it makes you abandon science, and philosophy is intellectual only. Got to include emotion.

tizzoseddy say: Not necessarily wrong nor right. It might suit some and serve them well, or it might not. Emotional needs might be neglected.

d_r_siva say: No. I also do.

canadacraig say: Wrong? Not sure about that. But you would be a very narrow-minded person.
-
Fox say: Not at all.
-
Dan say: Science, religion, or some where in between if you're happy, live how you wish.
-
D g say: The answer is only opinion. The one person showed a lack of understanding of science by saying its wrong to only believe it observable things. Most of science is the unobservable.

Electrons. Protons for just a few higgs boson for another.

JG say: Yes, because not all of science is 100% factual and that has nothing to do with your salvation.
-
say: Maybe not "wrong", but you would have an incomplete and possibly mentally unhealthy life and very likely unfulfilling relationships, if any at all. .
-
Hogar say: There is too much in the world that science does not explain. Science is still chasing dark matter because it does not understand galactic motion.

iammeforever94 say: Not really.

elj2017c say: Well, Jesus said at Matthew 5:3 “Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need, since the Kingdom of the heavens belongs to them." Those with a spiritual need are not guided purely by science. They recognize the ring of truth in the Bible. They note that, when exposed to the light of true science, the Bible shines more brilliantly than ever as a lamp for our feet, a guide for our lives. Science cannot tell you how to survive the tribulation that will shortly take place (Matthew 24:21) but living by the Bible's principles can.

P say: No. Science covers a very wide range of subjects. Science now rules our lives anyway
-
Siddhartha say: Yes, that would be a life void of any moral compass.
-
Sam say: Short sighted
-
Chris Ancor say: No, but one can't. At best you would be considered eccentric. At worst, a nut case.
-
Kevin7 say: It is not necessarily wrong
-
Freethinking Liberal say: Not wrong, just limiting. Add in Philosophy and Psychology (it is a science, nonetheless, not always known as such), to open up and explore.
-
Dusky say: Science doesn't supply value judgments; life requires them.
