Long term good (as long as ethical behaivior is followed, [i]but it won't[/i]).

Some fool will make a genetically superior lung, kidney, heart that will give someone an advantage, (long life), and every other fool will follow....
soon annoucing 150 yr hearts, lungs that breathe 300% better, and on and on............. !!!!

It's just a natural part of progression. It would be a good idea as long as it's use for the right application. Perhaps someone in need of a liver transplant can grow a liver from their own cells. That way their body would not reject it. Now I hear they are conducting experiments with stasis.

Maybe? It makes me cringe a little, but maybe just a little bit of genetic modification, not so far as fetus manipulation or that biz.

What about bionic modifications?

I'm okay with it.
Winterwanderer · 26-30, M
Yeah, I think it sounds pretty cool.

Science is all about progress.. meaning they have to experiment/try. Its their (scientists) jobs. Sometimes surprising results can occur.

Transplants but we are venturing into the realm of altering our children's DNA for aesthetics

Nope, man keeps messing up yet refuses to see it. This is yet another example. So much can go wrong.

On paper its a good thing but in practice we'll turn into basically the movie gattaca
WanderLustChick · 31-35, F
Haha yeah

Dangerous territory but promising to relieve suffering at the same time.
I believe they've secretly been doing this for many many years.I think it's very wrong

Right or wrong they're going to do it.

Good replacement parts are hard to find.
