Eugenics/Designer-babies... is the concept really that bad?
#43
RE: Eugenics/Designer-babies... is the concept really that bad?
As for editing genes that cause diseases like cancer and whatever else, ultimately I am for it because I am pro life. But I gotta be honest and say i would worry about eventually running into a big problem of human overpopulation. Dying out is, unfortunately, part of how the world works and keeps its balance. We keep looking for ways to stay alive longer, and that's good, but at the same time it is kinda messing with our planet's eco system.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
