Bioshocked, an ethical dilemma

Inspired by the video game Bioshock I put together this soundscape for my Broadcast II class at the University of Regina.

The main theme is trying to dispel religious dogma as a cause for opposition to genetic manipulation/gene splicing and look to the more rational reasons humanity needs to be careful with genetic manipulation:

namely, that many good things are used to do evil.

What is the beat/instrumental?

[Aika24]

It's one of the soundtracks found on the collectors edition disc. I think it's Sander Cohen's symphony, but it's been so long I don't remember.

You can find them all on the site now I believe.

Humans have so many faults on a genetic level, that it would be inhuman to not try to remove them.

Seems to me that religious groups actually want children to be born with horrible diseases that they inherit in their genetic code or develop in the womb. One would think parents to wish their child the longest possible lifespan and a life without a diabetes, anemia, down's, cystic fibrosis, huntington's, polydactyly, alzheimer's, cancer, werner's, turner's, cardiac illnesses, leukemia + many more

One word, perfect

[Vlaxitov]

Do you practice genetic science? Do you have an in depth understanding of how genetics work? How many billions if not trillions of dollars spent on the human genome project?

Where is all this genetic medicine to enhance my quality of life? So far we have been able to accidentally create a new strain of lukema with "gene therapy," nothing more.

I suggest you be more carefull when disrespecting another mans beliefs and opinions when yours aren't anymore substantiated.

Wow since when did they put exactly no gene spilcing in the bible... What i kno god just gave 10 commandments nothing more maybe the bible but never heard of no gene splicing..

[WhenxChristxReturnsx]

Many religious people are against gene splicing because God teaches us to take proper care of our bodies and not do things like gene splicing to them...
