Oh wow. Aha big topic. These days anything can be possible. Want a smaller nose? Nose job for you. Want to have chests the size of Mariah Carey? Boob job. Need bigger fuller lips, Botox and lip injections. And everything else you need, tummy tuck, all that stuff is possible these days with the worlds astonishing technology. But is it good for you on the long run? Are the side effects worth it? But now from these tests were moving to changing our child's DNA. I'll explain one thing, messing with a new born DNA for the first critical months cause cause huge harm to the child. Why wouldn't you want your child to look like you instead of your best friend because she has blue eyes? As I get to read more more about genes and cloning, and using genetic engineering to manipulate you child's DNA the more and more you can risk further health issues. As some people state that this type of mutation as "Playing God". All the more reasons to discourage DNA manipulation is that the word " Manipulation" doesn't sound very positive. If you manipulate someone, your changing them in to believing you, not for there cause. And if you doing this for your children's DNA and the mutations cause the 36 chromosome's in to 64, not only have you mutated you child but it's humanly impossible to have that many chromosome's. I think by changing genes you also must not be proud of yourself. Not only are you insulting your looks and genetic building blocks but your partners as well. Natural selection is the best way off, be glad for what nature intended.
As this one person states on Gazizza :
"Two artificial DNA “letters” that are accurately and efficiently replicated by a natural enzyme have been created by US researchers. Adding the two artificial building blocks to the four that naturally comprise DNA could allow wildly different kinds of genetic engineering, they say.
Eventually, the researchers say, they may be able to add them into the genetic code of living organisms."
What in the hell??? Ok first of all our genetic DNA consists of 4 letter. As you know its T,A,C,G. Therefore T bonds with A and C bonds with G. But the two new letters must bond with themselves. But changing this code can lead to future issues. Engineering a new set of DNA, the results can probably worse off then the effects. And another person on the same site explains
"But not everyone wants what seemed to be the three genetic engineering options: refrain and let nature take her course, attempt to repair genetic diseases but otherwise let well enough alone, or select positive qualities in children. There are parents who are deliberately ensuring that their children are born with disabilities, from deafness to dwarfism. A fourth option—inflicting permanent disabling conditions on children—is now being used"
Why would someone try to changing what they have made. We humans have been born with diseases all our lives, due to our genetic code, and the pass of traits. In this case altering you normal child's DNA into being born disabled. Why on earth would a parent want a child to suffer? Genetic defects are the least of the newest trends that people want yet scientists are creating more defected children than healthy kids? Parents these days don't know what they want for themselves so testing your baby like a high school science lab is not the way to do it. I think after a bit of common knowledge and research, I think genetic engineering for the perfect material child is oblivious. Therefore undoubtably stupid.
