I have a very very selfish view on genetic engineering.

If it can prevent children from dying, prevent ALS, destroy Alzheimer's, correct Optic Nerve Atrophy(my grandma went blind at the age of 39), cure Lupus( my mum died of it), prevent cancer(my uncle died of it) ...

I support it. If it's playing God, why would God give us the tools to save his people and not use it?

Or perhaps more advanced medical knowledge and technology?

Preventing or curing disease is one thing. Engineering for a higher IQ, or being taller or changing your appearance is another issue.

@HoraceGreenley I didn't say the second half of your statement though, I'm just advocating for the tech that prevents us from dying faster than our natural life span

@Longpatrol understood. We'll see

I wholeheartedly agree!

There is nothing really wrong with that. It more becomes an issue when it is used to make sure someone has a kid of a particular sex or orders up the blonde haired, blue eyed, superman of 80 years ago.

My thoughts exactly!!

We need to reset back to the original DNA. So many damages throughout the generations.

If we end up curing everything and then live forever, then what? It didn't seem god's intention for us to live forever

cherokeepatti · 70-79, F

@pianoplayingsteve humans messed it up

Longpatrol · 31-35, M

@pianoplayingsteve I'd like at least to live to our average lifespan, no more dying at the age of 4 or 44 shit.
