Bioethics Interview

I interviewed Chiyuki about " If you could genetically engineer your child, would you do so? Why or why not?"

Her answer was " Partly No". The reason was that it is not natural for controlling the genes by human. Although she agreed to genetically engineer for health usage. For example, I think every parent will think they will want there children to be healthy, so if the child had a gene which cause specific diseases she said she will engineer those genes to become healthy.

I think I can understand her view. If I was a parent I will do such action. Although, is that good? Is that right for the human nature? Well there will be less diseases and it will really be a happy society but I think there are some things that we should not just step into. Umm... the issue of biotechnology is difficult.

My Topic for Bioethics

My interest in Bioethics is Cloning. I still don't have enough knowledge so I have many questions to this topic. For example, if we allow cloning and make cloned humans, can they earn the same rights as humans? Another question is that is it aceptable to create a life by our own hands?
One thing we can say that we already have the technology in cloning and it's becoming a reality.
