Our body is like a lottery: from the start, you can win health and even genius. But no one is immune from genetic diseases. Do we want this for our children?
Jamie Metzl believes that we should not rely on a "blind watchmaker", having in our hands the ability to control the genome, like a program code. Evolution, put under control, will give a person the opportunity not only to eradicate certain diseases, but also to become more perfect - and happy. One has only to choose the most successful configuration of genes. However, such a scenario is inevitably fraught with risks: we may lose a gene whose importance we do not yet understand | society will potentially be divided into "genetically haves and have-nots" | states will start a war for technology. That is why the development of genetic ethics should be carried out in parallel with laboratory research.
Changing humanity at the genetic level is no longer science fiction, but a natural consequence of the development of biotechnology. It's time to arm yourself with the facts.
