What could go wrong with these mad scientist experiments?
We're in the days of Noah for sure.

Let me know if you want on/off.
This is an absurd abomination.

This is not good, and can/will be used for bad purposes.

Back to eugenics. Don’t kid yourself...abortion was invented for that purpose. Hillary even made the point....that it was to get rid of “not quite right” babies.....rare and safe....kill’m

A Chinese scientist sparked international outrage in November when he announced that he had used the same technique to create the world's first gene-edited human babies. He said his goal was to protect them from infection with HIV, a claim that was criticized because there are safe, effective and far less controversial ways of achieving that goal. And the problem is?
Haven't we used similar.methods to produce faster growing, higher yielding corn, wheat even chickens?

Hillary was “so honored” to be given the Margaret Sanger Award before the 2016 election. Sanger was a founder of Planned Parenthood and an outspoken supporter of eugenics, cleansing the gene pool of those she considered inferior, such as Blacks. And Hillary was “honored.” Of course, she had received thousands of dollars in campaign donations from PP, just as Gov. Northam has. They’d be proud to assist in abortions if PP required it in order to get the cash.

Yes, of course, and many will result in failure, causing them to destroy the embryo (kill the baby.)
Human life is now worthless. No respect left for human life. Very strange - a living human not valuing human life - very abnormal and unnatural.

I know that many people blow off that this is the end times because *people always think they are living in the end times*, but that’s not the reason I think that.
I think it because this world has come to a place technologically that the human race cannot survive much longer if moral integrity is not restored, plus the technology that we enjoy enables a great deal of end times prophecy to be fulfilled that could not have been even a generation before.
Total government control is now a possibility with stuff like microchipping and tracking us through our phones and other technology.

And the problem is? Haven't we used similar methods to produce faster growing, higher yielding corn, wheat even chickens? Yep. For hundreds, maybe even thousands of years.
It was only a matter of time until we began using our hard won knowledge to improve the human gene pool. I don't fear this development at all.

We're in the days of Noah for sure. I believe you are correct sir. I think there were other things going on in the days of Noah, but could this be called trans humanism?

“I don’t fear this development at all”.
I fear this development if it is not used morally.
Hitler would have loved to have this ability. We have people that are as bad or worse than Hitler in positions of power today.

This is old news....been going on for years in labs around the world. Wonder what is going on today that we have yet to be told.
Boundaries? right....

I read somewhere that China, Russia and the USA are already working on that.

When an effort can produce only inhuman results, why even bother? God creates all the embryos in the world. God doesn’t make mistakes. God is not mocked.
Methinks Mr. Egli needs to spend some time contemplating these facts.

This really irritates me, as it's not difficult to do this, in the least (could easily teach most FReepers to do gene editing if they were truly interested), and this is just another example of a ‘wannabe celebrity’ scientist seeking fame rather than doing good science.
