Designing Life : Right Or Wrong?

People who are able to use their experience and knowledge by designing or performing skills to find a solution are considered to be engineers, and in most cases, they usually invent creations to make daily life easier. In particularly, inventions are not always used for their purpose. Thus, it illustrates whether or not engineers are morally concerned with society, especially if something dangerous were to be misused and intentionally harm others. At that point, the engineers should be held accountable

Once considered unethical and unmoral, now is apart of everyday life. Now, genetic modification technology is quickly progressing, but how far should scientists be able to go when manipulating the human genome of embryos? Designer babies, or genetically modified human embryos, now have the possibility of becoming a

many aspects of our lives. Along with astounding benefits that can come from these biotechnologies, many people have come up with crazy ideas, such as these designer baby ideas, that could be potentially harmful to our society. With the option of designing your own child, most parents will ultimately decide they want their child to be good-looking and intelligent. Who wouldn’t want that for their children? However, this blindly makes the next generation of children genetically similar to a fault. As

help of technology, scientist have been able to make designing your own baby a reality while a couple years back it was believed to be impossible. Designer babies are babies whose genetic makeup have been modified in order to enhance or retrieve a particular defect or to ensure that a particular gene is present in the child. It seems like scientist have found a way to make ideal human being, but there are many factors that play along in designing a baby. Many people would agree that this is for the

The pros are: reduced risk of genetic diseases, understanding of genetics, increased life span, and modifying their appearance. Then the cons would be: the baby has no choice in the matter, loss of individuality, termination of embryos, and only the rich can afford it. The technology used to make designer babies should have limitations

DESIGNING LIVES is a story driven by the themes of never giving up and learning to move on. The setting in Montana is very pleasing and it’s refreshing to see a story that features two leading female protagonists. Told against the backdrop of “designing” is appealing. The subtext of the story is about “designing” or redesigning one’s life. While the themes are well appreciated, the script would benefit from more development. One area of concern is the true identity of the leading protagonist

Abortion is not only morally wrong, but it is also taking away the freedoms and rights of other people, as well as hurting women both physically and psychologically. The Constitution and its amendments protect the rights and freedoms of all people. The freedom of speech, religion, and press, the right to petition the government, the right to trial by jury, and most importantly the right to life. This right is stated in the 14th Amendment. No state shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property (Cornell

I don't think that it is a question of whether or not sport provides moral training, but instead we should ask ourselves what kind of moral training does sports provide? Whether it is a 6 year old, playing t-ball for the first time, or an adult, on a Major League Baseball team, sports and the environment surrounding it will either develop new morals in you or test the morals you already have instilled in you. Specifically, young children are still developing their moral compass and are vulnerable

The reason being because when it comes to designing babies there is good as well as bad. For example some may say being able to genetically modify a baby so it has no chances of coming out deformed or even with mental or psychical diseases and disabilities is a miracle. Others may say that in the law of ethics this can not be acceptable. The fact the you're choosing your child's fate is ‘wrong’ stating that whether a child ends up with a disease is life, we should not be able to control it. Which
