    Why make an ideological argument against ideologies?

    Science also led to eugenics and atom bombs. Religion also builds food pantries, wells, and hospitals. It is not about the tool but how we choose to use it.

      eugenics

      Not science.

      atom bombs

      No argument here. Science was also used to develop airplanes and buildings. You can create with the knowledge earned from science, but religion (can) give the justification to misuse those creations.

      It is not about the tool but how we choose to use it.

      Well said.
