> what we're talking about here is a protocol for performing eugenics... No. What we're talking about is if it's ethical to essentially create a race of monster-people by altering their DNA. GP is saying, no way it's ethical, because if they have offspring it would be unethical. I'm saying maybe it's as ethical as current medical science, as long as you sterilize them. You're the only one talking about eugenics. > ethically that isn't a hang-up for you Look, ethics is in its core, a public affair. Ethicists are primarily concerned whether general people will find XYZ acceptable, and why or why not. For me personally, I'm not concerned with academics. I'm concerned with whether I feel it's right or wrong in my personal view. Is genetically altering humans ethical in my personal view? No.
