It is interesting to see that when we genetically modify animals we think its cool and that its a good idea, yet when we think about modifying humans it scares us. When it is used to fight disease it is definitely a good idea yet it scares me to think that people could get a hold of this and use it for evil on the human body.
I am against this because it will take a lot of failing before we get it right and those fails could mean failing for human life. Seeing those butterflies that the crisper didn't worked on scared me because thinking about it in terms of butterflies, it could be so much more dire in the case of humans.
Choosing what gender you want your baby to be is not the same as genetically changing a child. I understand wanting to choose that but call me old fashion but I believe that a surprise is interesting and fun. When we mess with so much, it could end up being something negative and not positive as intended.
