Further down the road, they will have the ability of self-consciousness/sentience and have the ability of cloning themselves (e.g. single celled amoeba) or have the ability to splice more and more genes into themselves till no end. For all things that start, there would eventually be an end.

Genetic engineering has been used since the 1960s to help us acquire better quality crops at a higher yield in order to feed the exponentially increasing global population. Recently, it has also been posited that genetic engineering can help remove diseases that arise during birth, and can improve one’s physicality, sensory functions and intellect. This seemingly looks like a bright future. However, with recent research involving a wide range of test from plant species to animal species to humans, the ethical concern regarding this relatively new technology has increased over the years, as it may cause severe disruption to the ecosystem and society]]> 2018-05-04 02:29:43 UTC https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895099 https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895125 So if the corporate world is as described within the resource, will and if so how will people guide these corporations towards harnessing genetic engineering for the good of all?]]> 2018-05-04 02:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895125 https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895128 I support genetic engineering as it gives organisms more desirable features which could benefit us in the future]]> 2018-05-04 02:29:55 UTC https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895128 https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895131 Is there to some extent denial of negative impacts of genetic engineering by humans?]]> 2018-05-04 02:29:55 UTC https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895131 https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895142 I want to understand the limitations of genetic engineering, and whether it will be beneficial to us if we continue modifying genetically engineered food.

Oppose: Given recent developments within genetic engineering (Dolly and the spermless-hatched baby), it is clear that we are being reckless with this new technology, and in our zeal have forgotten to discuss ethical ramifications( trans-humanism, "playing god", bio-hacking, White Plague).]]> 2018-05-04 02:31:05 UTC https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895290 https://padlet.com/danielsiew/3s2geneticengineering/wish/257895308 I support genetic engineering.

However, I also oppose it because if we somehoe find a way to become immortal(or at least close to immortal) it feels as if we are playing God. I, coming from a Catholic Background, believe in God so if we are immortal, what is the point of Heaven? Thus I do not fully support it.
Moreover, it may be abused by people and someone would have to think of how to stop them.

It also has a great potential to solve problem food shortage around the world.
