    “The Magician's Twin”


    by CS Lewis

    The film highlights how some people can twist science and treat it like a religion, not that
    science is a religion. Science has both pro's and cons. The biggest threat of science is the
    tendency to control people, because scientific knowledge leads people to believe anything you
    say. People may think that because of their knowledge, they should be able to dictate what
    people should do. Lewis stressed how we need a limit of what science can do that respected
    human rights.
    According to the video clip, there is a danger that science can also succumb to the most
    dangerous trappings of belief that have enslaved many religions. As human beings, we often
    choose to believe what we want to believe and condemn any point-of-view that challenges our
    belief. We passionately defend our own intellectual and philosophical turf without ever
    questioning whether the things we choose to believe in are rational or valid.
