Humanism has some of the reasonings worked out to justify feed
   the poor/care for young / charity). They've at least made some
   attempts over the last.. hm.. 120 yrs or so (I forget the
   timeline of humanism honestly) but some attempts have been made,
   although that's a philosophy rather than a science.

   Ethics tries, although it kind of falls short a little. It
   doesn't _quite_ reach the level of depth of caring that you find
   in many religions. Science doesn't have a "core to reach" as it
   is externalist - outward-looking-in. Religions tend to have an
   "inner something" that they're trying to reach and believe it to
   be there.

   That's the lacking bit in science. The inner "something"; hence
   the general public view of science as being cold, unfeeling,
   uncaring, empty and vacuous of humanity.

   I see the caring in science via the scientists; their drive and
   passion (with, of course, many who are just trying to get a
   paycheck, like any other job), but you know what I mean.
