Have you ever thought about one of the most shocking scientific activities? I will answer for you: genetic tests on humans.
Many people say it is only the fault of the scientists who create these tests. But I don’t think it is that simple. I think both sides are responsible. The people who agree to be test subjects often do it for money, not because they have to. At the same time, genetic engineers could choose safer and more careful methods. They do not have to make such extreme experiments.
However, the main question is this: Is changing human genetics the way science progresses, or is it a violation of human rights?
In my opinion, it is clearly a violation of human rights. Humanity seems to be going in a dangerous direction. First, experiments were done on animals, and now human genetics is being changed. This is very worrying.
Real science should not harm animals or human beings. We must understand the difference between helpful science and harmful science. Even though science is very important, and I cannot imagine a world without it, the idea of changing human genetics makes me uncomfortable. It feels wrong and unfair.
So my answer is clear: I do not support it.
I hope the reader understands this topic better after reading my article. I also hope that one day, fewer people will support this idea.
