Human engineering is certainly in our future. The only question is, WHO will be the first to do it and for what reason?
The US government has currently attempted to limit and/or eliminate human cloning and similar genetic experimentation for political reasons alone. This is like giving us a shovel to dig our own grave from my perspective and here's why;
If we outlaw genetic experimentation, then only those with less than pure intent will legally gain expertise in this area of medical science. Will the next Sadam wish to breed out non-muslims altogether?
Who will be the next Hitler and attempt to create the perfect race? I hope it is a society with the the best of intentions and not supreme power on their mind. It is the DUTY of the western countries to move forward with human engineering if only to keep one step ahead of the bad guys.
