Debate On Genetic Engineering
Cons of genetic engineering disadvantages of genetic engineering.
Debate on genetic engineering. On the other hand there are several types of potential health effects that could arise from the insertion of a novel gene into an organism. I would like to thank young skeptic03 for taking up this debate topic firstly i would like to counter the point my opposition has made on genetic engineering being unavailable to the average consumer. Genetic engineering has the potential to solve many problems in the human world. There are two types of hge negative and positive.
Genetic engineering is among the top three most controversial issues of the modern world that always sparks off heated debates upon the issue of its ethicalness. Like anything else it can and may even be abused but it is the abuse of genetic engineering that is unethical not the act itself. No exploration should be limited. Here are some arguments against genetic engineering that establish why it is wrong for humans to interfere with the original blueprints of creation.
I support genetic engineering because it is the result and manifestation of human evolution. These insights are a subject often limited in discussions on genetic engineering and human enhancement in general and its links to ethical philosophical and policy discussions in particular. Genetic engineering for animals improves the farming industry it gives us more good food and it lowers the chances of disease in the cattle. Although possible this genetic technology has not yet been started because of continuing ethical debates.
I personally think it is a bad idea. Human genetic engineering is the genetic engineering of humans by modifying the genotype of the unborn individual to control what traits it will possess when born. Instead of demanding immediate draconian controls a vigorous concurrent moral debate should occur to provide a framework within which genetic engineering can progress. However genetic engineering will be abused by many perfectionists who want to design their babies right down to the colour of their eyes.
Negative hge is when treating problems that arise from genetic disorder. Genetic engineering in humans may be able to save millions of lives by finally treating hereditary diseases such as cancer and cystic fibrosis.
