experimentations executed in the name of science are near 70 years behind us, science has continuously crossed new boundaries. The most prominent advancement in science that is currently forcing society to reassess ethical boundaries is genetic engineering. Genetic engineering, also known as GMO, is the direct manipulation of an organism’s genome using modern DNA technology. It is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes

According to BBC News, the discussion about genetically engineering embryos should begin. With the increased technology that has been introduced in the past couple of years, changing a fetus’s genes and creating “designer babies” could become a possibility for parents (Gallagher 1). When these breakthroughs were published, there was an immediate uproar about whether changing one’s baby’s genes is ethical. The events that have led to this technology, and the technology itself, are intriguing to many

readers about Genetic engineering using scholarly journal articles to define Genetic engineering and give reasons for and against in order to convince readers why G.E. should not be legal on humans. Although it is said that there are benefits to Genetic Engineering, the numerous risks and complications greatly outweigh the benefits. Genetic engineering is not approved by the FDA in the US, not only because it is unsafe to our health, but also to our society. Genetic engineering will lead to future

Genetic Engineering has been exponentially growing over the years with the media unsure of whether they should support the advancement of genetic engineering or not. While the term genetic engineering is often used in mainstream media, much of the general population does not have a clear understanding of its meaning, current uses, and potential applications. This leads to misinterpretation of the information that the public's receive creating problems which worry them. Despite the risk and ethical

that poison gas, genetic engineering, and nuclear weapons and power stations are terrifying. It may be that civilization is falling apart and the world we know is coming to an end.” This quote sums up my stance on genetic engineering perfectly. Our society should not pursue genetic engineering in humans because of the risk, possibility for discrimination, and ethical problems associated with modifying human genes. The first reason why we should not pursue genetic engineering is that there is an inherent

     A democracy is a system of government controlled by the people, not by one certain group or individual. In the Declaration of Independence it states that “all men are created equal,” an idea which leads to the concept that all citizens should have the same rights, responsibilities, and influence in the governing of their country. In writing the Declaration of Independence Thomas Jefferson was trying to break his ties with the harsh and non-democratic rule of the British and begin a new

If genetic engineering had limits the human race would suffer from many genetic diseases such as Cancer, Autoimmune, Huntington`s, Down Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and many other genetic disorders. Therefore, genetic engineering shouldn’t have any limits placed since it helps improve the human diversity. Genetic modifications should only be used for diseases and physical imperfections. The reason for this is because the human race needs to decrease the number of human beings

Genetic engineering techniques should not be used to custom tailor children.  It is morally wrong because it overrides natural selection.  Humans should not have the right to play God.  It is also unfair for those who are born naturally.  Instead of allowing nature to decide, humans might choose what their descendants will be like.  Nature alone should be the judge of one's skin color and other features.  Genetic engineering should only be used for medical purposes.  Otherwise, it is unfair to those

virtually any profession, engineering included. As has been instilled in my perceptions about my chosen career field since my first day at Texas A&M University, engineering is far beyond the intellect to do calculus and write computer code; engineering is making decisions that will affect countless others and could even hold others’ life at stake. For this reason, Aristotle’s duality of intellectual and moral virtues deserves a more substantial introspective role in the engineering field. Within Nichomachean
