I realize this, I'm just saying it's a possibility that may happen eventually in some distant future when we become "gods" ourselves. Science should cover everything to be "true science". Questions regarding human pondering should be answered with the breakdown of logic/physics. It's hard to grasp as a possibility now only because it's so far into the future.

For example: Is it better to kill 1 person to save 2? Right now it can be argued with moral standards. With the breakdown, we can bypass this question because its too general. We should know the decendents of all the people and who further contributes a cause to humanity and who upsets it. On and on this breakdown will continue, what cause is better? ect. With unlimited sight, cold logic can be applied to anything. Morals would cease to be only as a human condition.

No. There are questions which cannot be answered scientifically, and moral ones belong to that group. So long as humans are alive, they are subjects. And so long as they are subjects they ask questions that cannot be answered scientifically.

Fair enough, but we have different views on the matter. I will put more thought into this, even if it's foolish.
