Building Baby from the Genes Up
Introduction
Genomic science, with the experiments, is going towards such a future in which anticipatable reforms are likely to be achieved. These reforms include reducing the vulnerability to a number of diseases, and are likely to increase life span, better perceptive working and maybe even beautifying developments such as whitening of skin complexion, whiter and straighter teeth. The main challenge is to see that we do not also set free the geniuses of discernment and repression. Even though the risks have been acknowledged, but still the researchers believe that they can and will integrate the gene technology into the continuing human adventure.
Thesis Statement
“Though most of the people do not accept to modifying the genes of their babies but such human genetic technologies can be helpful in curing many terrible diseases.”
Supportive Arguments
Mr. Ronald M. Green, in his article “Building Baby from the Genes Up”, argues that the two British couples who were conceiving for a child were quite reasonable as there is a possibility of modifying the genes within the human body which can be result in having a modified kid. Such as, in the year 2007, two families were allowed to have genetic modification in the United States of America. The author argues that though most of the people do not like this concept but making modifications in the DNA sequences can be beneficial as this can reduce the threat of many harmful disease and also can be helpful in beautifying enhancements such changing the skin color, whitening the teeth, or color of eyes etc. (Green, 2008).
Richard Hayes, in his article, “Genetically Modified Humans, No Thanks”, argues that modifying genes is like parents are using a catalogue to design their future babies. He criticized Mr. Green because he supported the
