>Can you elaborate on what makes you squeamish about research? Yes, I for one can't imagine why editing the genes of humans would cause alarm. After all, who wouldn't want to have children that are smarter, more docile, and healthier? Or, for other people's children, who have qualities that make you uncomfortable and can't be edited out, like dark skin or homosexuality, you have the option to edit their reproductive ability so that such qualities can come to an end humanely, without violence. In the same way, I can't understand are those people against longevity research. Who wants to die? Not me, and certainly not those in power. You know, the people in power earned their positions, they are good at it, and mortality just means someone new and inexperienced will fumble around at the job. For continuity and safety, immortal leaders will do a better job and keep us safe. I don't see why anyone would consider this a bad thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satire
