00Henry I. Miller, a researcher at the Hoover Institution and Gregory Conko, director of 02br
02br
02br
02br
00food safety policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, they both claim that genetic 02br
02br
02br
02br
00engineering has the ability to obtain results in improvements in agriculture and in life-saving 02br
02br
02br
02br
00medicines.00 00They disagree with accusations that are 01b00cipher02b00 those products that are genetically 02br
02br
02br
02br
00engineered that threat children’s health which discourage the use of these products that could 02br
02br
02br
02br
00actually save children’s lives.00 00There are always people who are skeptic about the consequences 02br
02br
02br
02br
00provided by genetic engineering unless there are more people that can influence others about the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00benefits of genetic engineering.00 00The benefits of genetic engineering that it has to offer should not 02br
02br
02br
02br
00be impede just because of some special-interest groups out there are using it as a 01b00scapegoat02b00 for 02br
02br
02br
02br
00their own ethnical issue.02br
02br
02br
02br
00According to Ron Epstein, a research professor at the Institute for World Religions in 02br
02br
02br
02br
00, he believed that the long-term negative effects of genetic engineering 02br
02br
02br
02br
00exceed the short-term benefits it has to offer.00 00It is a fact that genetic engineering does not poses 02br
02br
02br
02br
00a threat to mankind just because modification of organisms at the basic genetic level existed for 02br
02br
02br
02br
00at least back to 6000 BC when the Babylonians used microorganisms in the process of 02br
02br
02br
02br
00fermentation to brew alcoholic beverages and there are many scientific bodies, including the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00World Health Organization, U.S. National Academy of Sciences, have studied on modern 02br
02br
02br
02br
00biotechnology and arrived at conclusions that they are safe.00 02br

02br
02br
02br
00Bui 202br
02br
02br
02br
00Many skeptics, including Ron Epstein, believes that genetic engineering is a threat to the02br
02br
02br
02br
00environment and human because of genetically engineered pathogens that either be use in 02br
02br
02br
02br
00biowarfare, recombined in a toxic form from harmless, rapidly mutating engineered organisms, 02br
02br
02br
02br
00or release into the environment by accident.00 00In reality, there are no effective means of 02br
02br
02br
02br
00transportation to deliver mutated pathogens to be used as biological weapons and there was a 02br
02br
02br
02br
00Japanese terrorist group that interested a lot of money into making deadly pathogens with no 02br
02br
02br
02br
00prevail.02br
02br
02br
02br
00Some people believe that genetic engineering have a possibly of causing harm to the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00future of the human race if we genetic engineer our children which would support why genetic 02br
02br
02br
02br
00engineering of humans is largely unethical.00 00Bernard Gert, the Eunice and Julian Cohen Professor 02br
02br
02br
02br
00for the Study of Ethics and Human Values at 00, stated:02br
02br
02br
02br
00“... genetic therapy risks great harm for many in future generations and that there is not 02br
02br
02br
02br
00sufficient harm prevented to justify these risks.00 00Genetic therapy, like genetic02br
02br
02br
02br
00enhancement, not only is permanent during the entire lifetime of the affected individual, 02br
02br
02br
02br
00the transgene becomes inheritably transmitted to countless members of future 02br
02br
02br
02br
00generations.02br
02br
02br
02br
00Advocates that support genetic engineering of humans is ethical it is because genetic 02br
02br
02br
02br
00engineering prevent our children from getting undesirable genes that can give them life-02br
02br
02br
02br
00threatening illnesses.00 00Also, it is our duty to use our intellect to pursuit for more knowledge and 02br
02br
02br
02br
00achieve new scientific breakthrough.00 00An example of a scientific breakthrough is found in Mary 02br
02br
02br
02br
00Shelley’s 01u00Frankenstein02u00 when Victor’s mind precluded into thinking about making his creation, he 02br
02br
02br
02br
00questioned himself, “Whence, I often asked myself, did the principle of life proceed?00 00Another 02br
02br
02br
02br
00reason why genetic engineering of humans is ethical is that Oliver Morton, a contributing editor 02br
02br
02br
02br
02br
00Bui 302br
02br
02br
02br
00at 01i00Wired 02i00magazine editor at 01i00Wired 02i00magazine stated:02br
02br
02br
02br
00“Biology, after all, is about life, not nature.00 00It’s just an accident of history that, until 02br
02br
02br
02br
00recently, everything alive was more or less natural.00 00Nature is a record of 4 billion years 02br
02br
02br
02br
00of life’s successes, written in the language of the genes.00 00Biology’s new strength comes 02br
02br
02br
02br
00from being able to read that record; cracking the genetic code has ushered in one of those 02br
02br
02br
02br
00wonderful eras of scientific progress when new discoveries keep leading to new 02br
02br
02br
02br
00techniques with which yet discoveries can be made.”02br
02br
02br
02br
00Advocates including Bernard Gert claims that genetic engineering is an unethical ordeal 02br
02br
02br
02br
00it is back up by the fact that positive eugenics or genetic enhancements is morally wrong just 02br
02br
02br
02br
00because it is dealing with something we do not know that there are risks.02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00Advocates opposes this because they believe that that a species’ genetic variation affords 02br
02br
02br
02br
00evolutionary plasticity or there is a potential for new subsequent adaptation.02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00Lee M. Silver, a molecular biologist and the author of 01i00Remaking 02i00: Cloning and 02br
02br
01i02i02br
02br
01i00Beyond in a Brave New World02i00, who believe that human cloning is ethical quoted, “Real human 02br
02br
02br
02br
00clones will simply be later-born identical twins—nothing more and nothing less.”00 00According to 02br
02br
02br
02br
00Lee M. Silver, he concluded that most people are against human cloning because of religious00 02br
02br
02br
02br
00beliefs that he feels are not good enough to influence public policy to be on their side on human 02br
02br
02br
02br
00cloning.00 00 02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00E.V. Kontorovich, a writer living in 00, who claims that human cloning, is 02br
02br
02br
02br
00unethical quoted, “Cloning would take the humanity out of human reproduction, and in doing so 02br
02br
02br
02br
00rob our spirits of something that cannot be replaced artificially.”00 00According to him, he believe 02br
02br
02br
02br
00that the relationship between the cloned child and their parent would be awkward, and the clone 02br
02br
02br
02br
00might be viewed as an economic good that as made than rather a person who was born.00 00Also, it 02br
02br
02br
02br
00Bui 402br
02br
02br
02br
00is unethical that the scientists harvest organs from cloned human fetuses.00 02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00People who are on the same side as Lee M. Silver believe than cloned children will be no 02br
02br
02br
02br
00different in biological terms from everybody else of the species.00 00According to Lee, one of the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00reasons why there are so many scholars, ethicists, and scientists that oppose human cloning 02br
02br
02br
02br
00it is because they wonder if it is safe or not.00 00Since the cloning process has not been proven to be 02br
02br
02br
02br
00safe and its applications toward generation of newborn children could have negative 02br
02br
02br
02br
00consequences such as birth defects.00 00Secondly, they are afraid of the psychological effect of the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00cloned child even if the physical defects are preventable.00 00And at last, the skeptics are worried 02br
02br
02br
02br
00about the negative effect that cloning will have an impact on the whole society.00 00His reason 02br
02br
02br
02br
00about would why people make these excuses up to oppose human cloning stated:02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00“They have latched on to arguments about safety, psychology, and society because they 02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00are simply unable to come up with an ethical argument that is not based on the religious 02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00notion that by cloning human beings man will be playing God and it is wrong to play 02br
02br
02br
02br
00God.”02br
02br
02br
02br
00Kontorovich like other advocates who are against human cloning believe that human 02br
02br
02br
02br
00cloning will be an advance where it will undermines the human race in the long run.00 00That is 02br
02br
02br
02br
00there is a good reason that all higher life forms are reproduced through the process of random 02br
02br
02br
02br
00combination of the DNA by the two parents.00 00In respond to changes in the environmental 02br
02br
02br
02br
00changes, the genotypes goes through constant change, failure to vary the genotype would creates 02br
02br
02br
02br
00genetic stagnation that can be harmful to all forms of life.02br
02br
02br
02br
00 00People that are for human cloning and it is ethical including Lee M. Silver agree that 02br
02br
02br
02br
00human cloning will not harm society because if human cloning is going to become legal, the 02br
02br
02br
02br
00cloned children would only be accounted for a fraction of a percent of all the children born into 02br
