First, determine your concept of becoming a Buddha.
I personally do not believe in Buddhism, but I can explain my views on this kind of person.
Let me talk about the conclusion first: I think there are no completely unethical scientists. The unethical nature of most scientists is only reflected in some individual things (of course there are a few counterexamples). Some of the facts are due to the celebrity status of the scientists. amplified by later generations.
A few examples:
1. Fritz Haber: During World War I, he was responsible for the development and deployment of chlorine and other chemical gases to Germany. And chemical gas weapons were widely used in war. As early as 1907, the Hague Convention had clearly outlawed chemical weapons, but Haber still stubbornly believed that "chemical weapons can end wars as soon as possible."
In the chemical weapons battle of World War I, it actually evolved into a battle between two major chemists-Fritz Haber versus the French Victor Greene. Fang is a Nobel Prize winner in chemistry. For this reason, Harper once said: "In peacetime, a scientist belongs to the whole world, but in time of war, he belongs to his country."
The consequences can be imagined. The plight of countless soldiers is indescribable.
I think it is impossible for him to become a Buddha if he has to say it.
2. Isaac Newton: How bad is this brilliant-looking scientist? You can listen to his famous saying: The reason why I can see far is because I stand on the shoulders of giants.
In real history, this Newton's original words are not the nonsense of many "chicken soup essays". They are used to express humility. On the contrary, they are used to curse people outright. Newton, who was already successful at that time, had a bad relationship with Hooke, another great scientist. Newton, who could not be reasoned with, actually used Hooke's hunchback disability as an excuse and blurted out this sentence. The so-called "standing on the shoulders of giants" is clearly a mockery of Hook's disabled appearance. Both emotionally and rationally, he is too venomous.
But this is just a result of his basic character. I think he can become a Buddha.
Therefore, if one has more virtue than virtue, one cannot become a Buddha; on the contrary, one can become a Buddha.
