Let's talk about Eugenics (and other genetic stuff)

[b]Topic 1: EUGENICS[/b] For everyone's convenience, here is a dictionary definition of the subject: [quote]Eugenics: The science of improving a human population by controlled breeding to increase the occurrence of desirable heritable characteristics. Developed largely by Francis Galton as a method of improving the human race, it fell into disfavor only after the perversion of its doctrines by the [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url].[/quote] Eugenics is a very hotly debated subject. The "word on the street" where I live is that people largely agree that those with serious medical defects shouldn't pass on those genes, but people hesitate to say at what point someone is considered unfit. [b]Discussion guide:[/b] What do you think about controlled breeding? How do we decide if someone is genetically defective/what sort of arbitrary bar do we use to measure them? [b]Topic 2: GENETICS[/b] As our understanding of biological science continues to fly forward at an incredible rate, we are suddenly facing a future in which we can genetically modify our offspring to be better than us, or to have desirable traits. [b]Discussion guide:[/b] What are the ramifications of genetics research and modification? Do you support genetics research? If you had a disease, and the money to do so, would you have your offspring modified to not posses the disease? This is a public post for the sake of gathering input from people outside of the Psykana Librarius, please be respectful and calm. A ninja is on standby, so behave.
