I agree with you that to you (and me) in this case there is a difference.
But, who sets the scale & scope?

- codeproject 6y agoTotally Agree!!! it is the initial stage.
- downrightmike 6y agoHIV is a very capable mutator, all he did was give it a chance in two hosts to mutate against. and then who knows the future danger of the kid's health. Dolly the sheep was cloned, but had enlarged organs. So not perfect. And what changes in these kids is a huge unknown and there was no way to predict it, because the doc just did because he could. Plus a whole eugenics program has a huge historical negative example in the last century because it lead to death camps.

Just because the box can’t be closed doesn’t mean we just throw our hands up and say “well, nothing we can do to steer this in a responsible direction”. We don’t breed humans like dogs to produce super men, even though we theoretically could.
