This is a lot to think about, but I feel sure, unfortunately, going by our past and how "well" we "police" or "regulate" ourselves as a society, that we will abuse this and mess ourselves up big time. If we were good at it, we wouldn't have to worry about the health of our planet. We don't live long enough to feel the consequences of our actions. Great post, thank you.

I'm just glad I don't have to think about this topic - it appals me .. we mess with human life and things will be even more dangerous to our planet than they are now. Yet there has to be some merit to eliminating major debilitating diseases ... so I hope we have many wise men and women who will take care of these possibilities ... I know you'll get lots of other thoughtful comments here .. <br /><br />All the best HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.com
