RE: Our Humanity: The Price To Pay For Technological Advancement?

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

But I have concerns: this should be regulated.

Exactly my point. There's still time to regulate these technologies and to define their limits. But how will this work?

Will non-augmented humans be considered as the "inferior race"?

Obviously this should be expected. Even in evolution, for example, survival is almost always based on the best fitted (survival of the best fitted). In the case of this technology, augmented humans may be better fitted and definitely favoured for survival (because the standard of survival might be raised so high) and the others may be seen as inferior race.

Thanks for coming around sir

The "how to:" is very unclear, but it is very timely to define this now. After, it may be too late (and this is were problems may arise.

Have you seen by any chance this movie called "Gattaca"?

I am not so convinced of that. The timescales behind evolution are such that there is actually no way to predict the outcome. This is at least my opinion.

I agree with you. It's better all these are addressed now, but only if politics will not interfere with it.

I've not seen the movie "Gattaca" but I just googled it. It's a 1997 film. I'll look out for it. Thanks a lot sir
