Whooo boy we could get into medical law and ethics discussion with this one lol. If this was an option I would not have had the issues I do now. With that said, what happens to the natural selection process. Nature keeps balance, some reasons are natural that the human race has these issues, some reasons we do to ourselves but even at that its natural selection because its human nature at the moment lol.
If we cure, fix the genetic issues then we might run into the issue of over population, even more use of natural resources, more reasons to point a finger at who is responsible for dare I say Global Warming bwahahahahah...
I do believe Hawkings got it right when he said "The extinction of the human race will be due to human inelegance". We have a tendency to do these great and wonderful things because we can but, we do not think about the consequences and consider human psychology or nature. Just looking at my generation, (Gen X I am,) I see more idiots in the world today than what was around 10 years ago and yes I can include myself in that bunch of idiots from time to time.
Ignorance and stupidity as a whole has grown exponentially in my humble opinion.
To quote a saying from The Men in Black " The person is smart, The people as a whole are stupid " Albert Enstein wrote "I made one great mistake in my life... when I signed the letter to President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be made" He knew the nature of the human race. He knew that we would be ignorant in our use of his contribution to the making of such and not think far enough ahead to realize the consequences.
Granted If this technology had been available years ago I would still have friends and family that would be here today and I could live allot longer than what is set for me. Then I have to ask myself. Is that being selfish on my part. Would it be worth the possible (most likely) outcome in the long haul for future generations.
We are a product of our own environment, Nature vs Nurture ect and so on. Our day to day lives make us who we are. Thing is the
majority of people never change the way they do things even if they see the need to do such, again I can include myself in that bunch on allot of things. The key word being Majority.
As far as the "Religious aspect" well here it is.... The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
All of this is just my thoughts,beliefs and opinion because of my every day life and my experiences. Fact is our perception is our reality and everyone perceives things differently. I just cant help that some are not educated enough to perceive things the way I do
lol....
