Humans “play god” all the time. Jump in a rocket and go to space? Playing god, that’s not natural for humans. Jump in a car that moves faster than you can run

Humans “play god” all the time.
Jump in a rocket and go to space? Playing god, that’s not natural for humans.
Jump in a car that moves faster than you can run? Playing god, again unnatural.
Consume a multivitamin? Consuming synthetic nutrients.
Get an mRNA vaccine to protect yourself against a disease is where we draw the line?
- scheeseman486 4y agoHumans have been practicing crude bio and geo engineering for thousands of years, also. "Playing god" is a defining trait of modern societal humanity.
- deepzn 4y agoMore specifically by playing God in my comment meant the future may involve messing with our biology-biochemistry and things how they were intended to be by nature, and by doing so, we may be causing our own doom. Like for example, the 'gain of function' research, and the controversy surrounding that involved the possibility of creating a deadly virus from the lab. What's to say while trying to develop vaccines to certain diseases, we don't cause harm to other species, even our own.
