Never get bored from watching it over and over again......we should have more debates tackling this issue..

El video empieza en el min 7, saludos a los de blackboard UVM

Everyone says the audio is off....looks fine to me.

You're absolutely right! You present only double-talk and nonsense, so indeed, arguing back is futile. I concede.

40 minutes in and I haven't heard one reference to the unintended consequences that genetic modification as had on our food supply and the subsequent worldwide rejection of consumption and environmental hazards..

What did I say that was nonsensical? As for double talk, how do you do that through print? (look up Mr. Double talk)

The audio is making me crazy. I cant finish watching this

For the radio broadcast.

you can't ban this, it's a civil liberties issue. Those who go ahead may indeed have healthier descendants and science may gain but they must bear in mind that if it gets messed up and their children or grandchildren suffer from this decision in any way, they have to confess they took the risk at the potential expense of their descendants, even though clearly for their own good. They HAVE to be aware right now that the full extent of this risk is UNKNOWN despite all assurances of the professionals.

how come they did not fix the intro in this edit?

really whats the point in parents paying 20 grand so their kids will have 4 more inches of height? or so that their kids have blue eyes instead of green... just pointless

This reminds me of thomas huxley brave new world

Unsatisfactory debate, I thought. "It's very unsafe and unpredictable" vs. "it's totally safe and already being done" -- well how are we to judge? Lots of talking past each other and very little movement on the points raised. I'll need to think more about this,

So the proponents argument seems to be "We arn't good at this science yet, so it is risky, for this reason we should never allow this science to develop".

See! There you go again.

Ethics weren't hardly discussed. That was disappointing

"The risks are to a society as a whole.".... yeah, imagine the risk if your pharma dependent slave population actually had good health and intelligence.

I am very much in favour of eliminating medical defects. And if it can be done in the gene line, so much the better. Actually, I am rather in favour of eugenics - and very much against disgenics.

fucking crazy! people truly are lost

No. They simply want to be more cautious, be more prepared, and know better how genes express themselves and how they interact with other genes and the environment. From Wikipedia:Gen2Phen: "Success in deciphering the mechanisms and pathways underpinning genotype-to-phenotype (G2P) relationships will bring about radical new opportunities for predicting, preventing, diagnosing, and treating all forms of illness." Perhaps waiting a bit will be more fruitful and less risky.
