Just to expand a little on the subject, in our previous post, of misusing science. There are two ways of misusing (abusing ?) science. The first is twisting scientific facts to fit ones own agenda. The other and more immediate, way of misuse is achieved when ethics is left behind in practical applications of science. Prenatal testing for familial hypercholesterolemia is sad recent example of the latter.
