O.k. so the topic we had to write about was that, Scientists are doing Expierments so that when people get pregnant they can choose what their child will look like. You can choose Eye Color, Hair, Inteligence, How tall they will be, and how they will actually look when they're older. I thought to myself, why the hell would people want that? So i asked the teacher, you're joking right? This is made up? And she looked me in the eyes and said No, this is true. After she said that, i asked myself one thing, HOW STUPID ARE PEOPLE? I don't know, that's just my point of view, tell me what you guys think of this? Are you for it? Are you against it? Feel free to comment:dance: P.S: Sorry for the bad spelling lol. Link to comment

But i think it can be both good and bad. if your child might have some sort of disease or mental disorder that can the fixed, then hey, why the hell not. on the other hand it can go to far and of course could most likely happen. i say no thanks to it though.

It is going to take several more decades before anything remotely affordable and specific is available to the majority of people. I have nothing against us and it has nothing to do with people being stupid. Most of the genetic re-engineering is being developed to prevent babies being born with serious health conditions. You can chill out about the whole thing and understand that worrying too much about it turns you into one of those "stupid people" you were talking about. I say scientists GTFO of human genetics and work on something worthwhile, like curing cancer! Messing with your children before they are even born, how horrid... I'd say human genetics is very worthwhile. You can prevent certain diseases and conditions before a child is born and there may very well be a link between genetics and cancer at some level.

That's just wrong, you really want baby einsteins genetically altered made by science? Its not natural! Intelligence is not purely genetic. It is also based upon how you are raised and how much you learn at a young age. If people are dumb enough to spend thousands of dollars making their baby smart BEFORE birth, then more power to them.
