@albiorix9645 There are arguments for and against this HUMAN gene manipulation, before they are classed as having legal rights. The term legal rights may prompt many possibilities in your mind (compensation for disability or lack of quality of life; or exclusion from certain physical sports and intellectual events due to having an advantage in this case). BUT, I'm going to speak of a positive ;)
It is no shock that a genealogist has inevitably decided to test using actual human DNA at this time.
Now is the right time for this in science, we have made SO many medicines (and operations) after the fact, and so many inoculations that continue to be injected into ALL school age children to avoid (now curable) certain diseases. Why not remove this FAULT before they are even born.
It was Cosmologists that made me think about timing. Cosmologists and astrophysics show without any confusion that our science is perfectly ideal right now. That IF Cosmologists first came about a few 100 million or a billion years in the future instead then they would NOT be able to initially know what we know today to be true (due to galaxies moving apart and away from us, and things such as the radiation from the observable edge of the universe would NOT be known or seen at all - this being one of the many reasons we confirm the Big Bang with).
Plain and simply, Cosmologists state: There is no better time in all of history and into the distant future, to presently observe our known universe.
I began to look at other areas, like how we know about the ozone layer depleting causing climate change, perfectly at the right time now to do something about it. IF we had learned this in say ... 200 years (even 50 or a 100), then it would have been too late!
Similarly I see how 'life finds a way'. But it finds this way when ALL is lost and no life should exist. If you know evolution as much as I do, then you know that there were MULTIPLE (possibly millions) of times and events where human species just would not have made it at all, yet our branch perfectly timely made a way. IF we had evolved before dinosaurs or even before ANY of those world catastrophic events (I think its 6 of without looking it up). Then humans would NOT have evolved.
I could go on and on with examples of natural perfect timing of the universe and all of life.
The time to genetically modify DNA is NOW. We are up to that stage, as all 'after the fact' medicines and operations we KNOW are maxing out. We need to modify human genetics NOW, and build a healthy long lasting STRONG and beautiful new human child, just as ANY parent would want :)
