Is it normal to think of everything in a moral-less scientific way?

I like to think of everything like a scientist, but without any morals at all. I just see everything without much emotion.

I also only rely on the pure facts of the matter, no bullshit.
I hate religion because it is mostly utter nonsense with no proof whatsoever.

I also see every human as nothing but another life-form.

Despite all of this, though, I have a fondness for fictional things and believe that with work, some fictional things could become at least somewhat reality.

I don't know what else to add, so this is all for now.

    Some things are unknowable. Fiction, myth, science, and religion are tools we use to describe and communicate the thoughts and feelings we have in our head. Science can help explain the how, but it cannot tell you why. And it cannot tell you how the individual is going to experience something. When science gets too bogged down in specifics, it forgets to experience that which it is experiencing. When religion gets too bogged down in dogma, it forgets to let people have their own experience. We need science to help us figure shit out, but we also need stories of fancy to help each other understand what it means to be human. It means something different to everyone.

    I am like that and I don't care. My morals are flexible for the most part. Sometimes morals get in the way of the greater good.
    As for the Bible, its around 2000 years old and if morals only came from it, even if the Creationists were right and humans were willed into existence just 2000-3000 years before that, does that mean that the people who lived before the Bible were completely amoral? No. Because morals are inherent. The Bible is just an example of someone writing some morals down and it "catching on".

    That's great to hear.

    The absolute beauty of science is seen in our world and the entire universe.
    I'm glad to hear that you appreciate life, ALL life and love everything in it.
    'Morals' are not found in the Bible, that would have to be the most immoral book ever! If we actually lived perfectly by the Bible, we'd be in jail or dead.
    Yes live a good life and question all you experience, its people such as you that will take humankind into the future.
    When we begin to open our eyes and move away from the fairy tales of religion, we can learn to be even more openly emotionally expressive without being judged by foolish beliefs.

    Impressive.
    Except I'd go one step further and state religion is 100% nonsense, unless you know of one little thing that makes any sense at all? I can't think of any.
    Thankfully public schools have stopped instructing young children of this foolish nonsense of religion.

    :)
