Question? Should we genetically engineer humans to be able to digest cellulose for a benefit?
Generations from now children will not only be genetically engineered to be beautiful, cancer free and have great DNA but they will also have genetically enhanced plants and animals surrounding them. In a world from now, Golden Retrievers may live for 20+ years thanks in part to their perfect gene codes. Not only will they live for a decade longer but their leg length will actually match with the size of their heads. This same will be true for the people of the world. You will be able to pick your childs gender, eye color, whether or not their tan or fair and how tall they will be. These children will know no different from these new engineers just as you and I have not known any different from electricity and television. So should we leave the science methods to the soils and never use genetic engineering? What if it was able to save a million of lives a year? What if no child would ever die of Luekemia again? Then would you change your mind? I forsee a perfect world of the future - that's not so perfect.
