this can be an intense subject. I believe our technology is outpacing our moral/ethical responsibility. Take cloning for example. Scientists continue in the race to clone more animals, and soon someone will at least attempt to clone humans. I believe we have not fully discussed the moral issue behind cloning. Or how about gene therapy? What are the moral implications of choosing a child's hair color, eye color, height, or even more dangerous, their personality traits? aggression may be genetically chosen by unethical countries for military purposes...may be far fetched, but I believe we continue to progress technologically without taking the moral issues into consideration, adequately.
