Homo evolutis

Also, I like kittens.

That's not my point. My point is the lack of diversity and such it would cause. Life would be bland. Not only that, but right now, at least for me, what makes my life worth living and fun isn't my "purpose" of making babies but it's my different and irrational decisions that make it fun. For a small example: drinking unhealthy coke over water when eating food etc, i.e going for desires and such. If we genetically modify babies to eat healthy, make smart and good decisions only, be logical and rational then life will become bland and less diverse, and that, I dislike. I don't know if this is just difficult to phrase or if I make no sense.
