CRISPR-Cas9 is a new scientific advancement used to edit genetic makeup. Although the technology is used to edit out bad genes, there is still the fear of the process causing more harm than good. As a result, this procedure can edit genes during the zygote stage and eliminate any unwanted or undesired genes present. Consequently, allowing individuals to speculate, "Eugenics lurk in the shadow of CRISPR", as "the positive selection of 'good' versions of the human genome and the weeding out of 'bad' versions, not just for the health of an individual, but for the future of the species" (Sas, 2017). While the studies are still new and being established, scientists have admitted there are unknown risks involved with using the technique. Likewise,
