It's fantastic news. I'd be a lot happier if it wasn't the PRC doing it. An authoritarian state with a horrible, and ongoing, record of human rights abuses one step closer to being able to genetically engineer humans. Lovely.
well, then, we should make sure those pesky "Taboo morals" get out of the window faster so we can do it too. because "its ammoral" and "not how god intended" is whats holding the rest of the world back. heck, it took Obama to even allow stem cell research.
I have always said what can be done will be done. Which doesn't make it a good idea. I can really see tremendous good coming out of genetics. In the hands of an amoral authoritarian regime like the PRC, I can see tremendous evil coming out of it. A two edged sword like many technological advances. Interesting times.
