<em><u>Ethics should be a part of everything one does. Science sometimes thinks that technological advances should occur regardless of the outcomes or ramifications. However, this is faulty thinking. Aristotle taught in his Nicomachean Ethics that the ultimate responsibility of man is to be and do that which is good. He stated, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” In other words, if we train ourselves properly we will automatically do the right thing and will be ethical in all our decision making. Had scientists in the past done this in developing technological advances we would not have weapons of destruction that exists today.</u></em>
