Genetic engineering is a result of science advancement, so I don't think that in itself is bad. If used wisely, genetics can be beneficial, but they can be abused, too.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I suspect any worries about genetic engineering may be unnecessary. Genetic mutations have always happened naturally, anyway.
I think the ethics and morals of genetic engineering are very complicated. It intrigues me.
Just as computer technology and the Internet created whole new industries and extraordinary benefits for people that extend into almost every realm of human endeavor from education to transportation to medicine, genetics will undoubtedly benefit people everywhere in ways we can't even imagine but know will surely occur.
With genetic engineering, we will be able to increase the complexity of our DNA, and improve the human race. But it will be a slow process, because one will have to wait about 18 years to see the effect of changes to the genetic code.
Genetic design is something we can use to fight the lack of sustainability we humans are forcing on the earth's environment.
Right now people are interested in genetic engineering to help the human race. That's a noble cause, and that's where we should be heading. But once we get past that - once we understand what genetic diseases we can deal with - when we start thinking about the future, there's an opportunity to create some new life-forms.
One of the really remarkably beneficial aspects of genetic engineering is that much of the previous methodology for controlling pests and so forth is through chemicals that affect a very broad spectrum of insects, for example, or fungicides that control fungi.
Genetically modified foods are good.
Knowing your genetic health risks will help you make better decisions.
I think genetic research is a fascinating and fertile area.
