Ah, you mean like synthesizing a steak, star trek style (or maybe lower tech but similar effect) that would be choice, wouldn't it? Provided that the process was more efficient than the current process, which has billions of years of trial and error for a head-start. A worthy goal. I don't think that it's likely that you'll ever eat such a steak, and we still have to eat (and survive) for whatever amount of time it takes to figure that out, don't we?
The kinds that we all ponder over, agree on (sometimes grudgingly), and then actualize, yep. Not "innate" kinds, not murkily justified kinds. Definitely not unworkable kinds. I don't know if "believe in" is really the right word, but we'll run with it.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
