    I find the separation of the ideal of "science" away from the actions of human scientists to be flawed.

    Science is a human-community knowledge-creation project.
    It can not exist separate from humans.

    That separation would allow obviously poisonous statements like, "Science has never harmed anyone", "Science is free of bigotry", "Science is above human ethics".

    cf "No one has ever been injured doing yoga." & #Eugenics
