The speeding development of modern science and technology and its extensive application in the areas of economy and society have brought human being into the age of sci-tech, an epoch dominated by science and technology. In the epoch of sci-tech, while admiring sincerely the great achievements of the civilization of modern sci-tech, we have to see soberly and think deeply the other side of modern sci-tech. This is intense conflict between the development and application of modern sci-tech and mankind's ethics. The contradiction between the spurt of technology and creeping of the ethics has brought human being to a dilemma: on one hand, revolutionary and far reaching science and technology can cause great panic; on the other hand, human beings are not willing to miss up the promising future introduced by sci-tech.The article tries to face up to the dilemma, reviews the relationships between sci-tech and ethics, probes the chance of the harmony between sci-tech and ethics in spite of their intense conflicts. The research is so significant that it decides the directions of human being's existence and development to some degree in the age when sci-tech dominates every aspect of social life.The article is concerned with the conflict of science with ethics, realizing the coordinating between sci-tech and ethics is an urgent is problem facing us, seeks to find out a break-through in the course of the theoretical inquiry into the relationship between sci-tech and ethics. According to this, the article gives a reasonable thinking and account on their relationships.On the grounds mentioned above, the article discusses the issue in three respects as following: First, the article explores the possibility of the coordination between sci-tech and ethics from the perspective of sci-tech's nature of ethics and their mutual interaction, which are the basics of their coordination. Second, the article makes an attempt to break through the restrictions of traditional tram of thought, sets up a series of new ideas and principles on thecoordination between sci-tech and ethics for theoretical guides. Finally, the article ponders over the barriers that impede the coordination between sci-tech and ethics in the view of society, humanities, mentality, ideology and intellectualism. Hereby, the article searches for the countermeasures for such issue by the means of ideology, mechanism, duty and system in an effort to realize the coordination between sci-tech and ethics.
