Are logic, experience, ethical concerns and legal ramifications more important than scientific inquiry in making decisions?
Answer
What factor is most important in making a decision? The implication is that if we find the most important factor we can ignore all the rest in our decision making process. We can't rely on scientific inquiry alone, because we may will trample on human values. We can't rely on ethics alone because without considering economics, decisions are almost always poor. Using a Decision Matrix can help merge all important factors. The example that can be changed to your own circumstances illustrates this.
