Darwin's BDAY!!!

Darwin was a famous scientist.... As humanities students (and humans), what responsibility do we have for the understanding of science? What role should scientific inquiry and scientific knowledge play in our own society? How should science influence our decisions, laws, and culture?

Well as humanities students I really don't know, but as humans I think that the understanding of science is something that we should probably know. Well at least the science of life, whether it is plant life, animal life, or the life of people. In biology we were learning about the science of life, and the things that living organism consist of. I thought it was pretty interesting to now were things come from and how they started, also we get to learn about the people who discovered all of these different things.
It is good for people to know how things work an for them to be interested in. I can play a big role in our society it already does it is something that all students learn in school and maybe people can pursue a career that has to do with that. If people want to be curious and find out new things about the science then they can do so I don't think it is something that everybody has to do, just that people who are interested in it, and they can figure out many things in this world.
I really don't know how science should fit into laws, but when it comes to decision making I think that we can definitely use science.If people have decisions to make and there is something in science that can help with that decision, then they should know it , or be able to look it up and research about it so I think that is something that science can definitely be used in.
