Human Anatomy BIOL-1090
Before reading this article I had a firm opinion on the issue of genetic enhancement. I believed that genetic enhancement when used for the betterment of health and for medical purposes was an acceptable thing. I still believe that this is true. After reading the assignment I have not greatly changed my opinion but I have been made more aware of the dangers involved in genetic enhancements. I do agree that we should be careful that we avoid making perfectly designed children and that genetic enhancement could lead to great social/economical division. But I believe that overall the benefits in the field of medicine outweighs the pitfalls of being misused.
