what are the benifits of having genetic engineering on your crops, babies, and every thing else
You can remove genetic defects, and improve the quality of the strain. I see nothing necessarily wrong with genetic engineering so long as it is used wisely and carefully. Don't give me that "tinkering with God's creation" hooey. Humans have been doing exactly that for thousands of years by selective breeding. Genetic engineering would merely speed up that breeding.

Indeed, an entire species owes its very existence to selective breeding. There are really no prehistoric dogs. You had prehistoric horses and donkeys, but dogs began as domesticated wolves. If anyone considers g.e. to be "against God," they are hypocrites if they own and love a pet doggie.

genetic engineering isnt a good idea and research, because we can destroy our natural mankind so we should strongly disagree and do not be a supporters. lets think, how healthy is eating modifitied food? and have 'clones'?

Personally I'm pro-genetic engineering.

I don't have an interest in it for personal gain though. More from a survivability viewpoint. The conditions on this planet will not remain so indefinately. To development of new species and changes to allow survival on other worlds, as a means to aid the continuation of intelligent life would seem to be a far more noble goal to me.

Thumbs up to our future children ;op

This sort of research sounds about as extreme as it gets. There may be numerous benefits on the way, but in the event we do one day manage to populate a new world, lets hope they are less divided and destructive as so many of us...

well i dont know a lot about genetic engineering except that the fact that it is trending now. i am not against this subject beacause as someone earlier said hybridization and cloning forms that are inseparable part of science so we have to live with it. we are not able to find if life exists in other planets or not or the forms of life outside earth and it seems quite impossible so we must do what we can from life within us and may be having idea of doing this is natures new way of evolution. we must be clear that all of us are controlled by the nature and some vital force. even though vital force theory is rejected we all know we believe in god how much ever we try not to. so may b genetic engineering is a new way of doing things by people via nature in originating new life.
i am nepali so not much idea about it may be foreigners who read this can give us ideas about this topic.
thanx

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Gemini

You're in a warm-hearted and generous mood today, especially when dealing with loved ones and members of the family. You want to give them as much of your time as possible, and also to do anything else that will keep them happy. The only snag will come if you're trying to spread yourself too thin and you end up making promises that will be difficult, if not impossible, to keep. You may forget all about them but other people won't.
