Blog5I don’t think we should alter nature. What is meant to be is. In the begging thins where almost perfect, until man disrupted nature, trying to have more and be superior to other. At one point it wasn’t nessecary because it was enough resources and land for everybody. Now we have to alter certain things to correct things that we changed and altered in the past. The balance of ethics and science is the key to advancing while keeping our humanity and ethics. The Man on the moon by George J. Anna’s was an accurate hypothesis of what humanity would be if we continue to genetically altering living things especially humans. The movie Gattaca was visual proof of what would happen. George J. Anna’s historically showed how people who thought they were superior, whether it was A race, religion culture or creed, tried to conquer the other people and felt justified doing it. Christopher Columbus Thought that his race was superior to the Indians so he murdered, enslaved, and converted them to his religion, and felt justified doing it. Although they had some uncivilized ways, they actually where more civilized then him. They lived a healthier more natural and peaceful life. We all have to have one mind, one way of life, assimilate to one race to stop us from trying to conquer each other. We still would try to conquer each other’s ideas. But done positively and ethically it would yield greet results for the universe. In Gattaca the genetically engineered humans took over and made the natural ones outcasts. The naturals where better because there metaphysical qualities, such as: leadership, will, motivation, innovation, compassion, etc., couldn’t be engineered genetically. Vincent’s dream and drive made him superior to Eugene. Eugene had better genes but made so few mistakes, that he couldn’t learn from them and fulfill his Dream like Vincent, because swimming wasn’t his dream it was what he was designed to do. The movie gave a frightening visual display of what life could be like if we continue to practice unethical science. Gattaca was a graphic proof of George J. Anna’s argument. On Page 234 he wrote about cloned animals and a laboratory experiments confined them. It would be the same way with humans just on a huge scale. The article spoke volumes in there examples of people thinking they were superior like the crusades, Germans, imperialism, cloning animals and more. This shows throughout history we have tried to conquer or kill, the living things we felt we were better than There where some Europeans who felt the Africans where savages. They conquered them and killed millions of people in the Proses. America spreads democracy across the world, by force because they say it’s the superior way to govern the people. They have future plans to continue this. Thus proving humans who think they are superior or who are, will try to concur the other. Since history and the present agree, it’s a fact that our future will to.
