Scientist are people who do long term researches and experiments. Their aim is to discover something that helps saves lives or benefits humans. Unfortunately, there are instances when scientists go beyond helping others; they do it for the money (lots of it), or they want to prove that they're God (if you believe in one). They are what I call "dangerous scientists". What in your opinion should scientists not bother researching or experimenting?

They should stop using their knowledge in creating things for mass destructions. Life is already tough as it is. Hope they won't complicate things even more.

I think as a scientist, his or her responsibility is to try to improve our living conditions, improve our environment, or do something helpful and useful to the whole world, or somethings beneficial to our daily life.

Up to me such people are not to be considered as scientists. They may be well versed in science but there needs some qualification in everything even in experiments or research. Experimenting or researching is good but the question is for what sake?If the experiments are for good things and for the people good it is called as the experiments and they doers are called as scientists, if it is for money purposes it is called sin or evil act and the doers are called as sinners or evil not scientists.
