Gitta Rensolo Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ok..........we had to do as an english homework today....to write an essay about the following question: Genetic engineering:Healing people or just optimizing human beings? I think it is a good question....what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ondes Martenot Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Genetic engineering is bullshit. why we should mix our DNS with other living objects? it's mutation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gitta Rensolo Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 Well.........I can tell you what I wrote: Something like: It's an intervention in the circle of life!Humans have to accept that they have to die one day...........I think it is just optimizing people.....it's unnatural.........and it is just to make money!!!

Ondes Martenot Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 yeap with the years medicine will change and in the future (maybe our generation as well) people will live more than 100 years,and it will be absolutely normal ;) why we should change our standards? it's natural,we live and after die,humans still haven't found anything which make possible to live forever...

Gitta Rensolo Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 Yeah......and I think it would be horrible to get older than maybe 100 years....I means the world also changes...there will be more catastrophies......etc...mor diseases........I don't think optimistic about the future!

winnie Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I don't care 'cause I'll probably be already dead when this is buisiness as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaying Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 i DO care 'cause everyone has responsibility for the future generation.and what this genetic engineering brings is not known.it can be very dangerous for health, environment-the ecologic system- and agriculture...

Reilly Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I don't care 'cause I'll probably be already dead when this is buisiness as usual. Ohhh hell no, you'll probably be about 30, unless you plan on living fast and dieing young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ondes Martenot Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 yeah, i think so that it will be very soon :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maiu Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Genetic engineering will be able to cure all genetic horrible deseases such as Parkinson,Alzheimer,Huntington's and so on, and as long as it's used for health issues only I support it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eccentricgal Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 im happy too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClearAsCrystal Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I guess using it for health issues only..pleases me..but for human optimization..that is shit. And yes..could one day be the norm..and most likely humans will take to it with a frenzy! It's like Hitler with science! :sad2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best u Can Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I have no problem with genetic engineering as long as it works well. It's just like taking drugs to me. I also like the idea of cloning organs, etc. because it could possibly solve a lot of things. but if it means we have to make a living person and then kill them, then obviously that would be immoral. ..
