How are humans going to make things better than God?

Science has just steped into a forbidden zone of nature.

[sholson2000]

How nice that you mentioned some of the issues but glossed over them to make them seem harmless. The differences are not really seriously sought out, several tests of GMO feedings have killed the recipients or made them sterile! Look up "The World according to Monsanto". All the horrors that you mention are shown in real life. there is not one company I can think of that is more dangerous on this planet. Agent Orange (not safe), roundup (not biodegradeable) and now GMO, (not edible).

So it seems we have sewn the seeds of our destruction.

Patenting self-replicators is a bit silly IMO

[Petrhrabal]

@Petrhrabal Poin of our debate is that you seem to thing that nature is perfectly intentionaly tuned system that may easily go off its fragile ballance. I think, that its all rather more self organising syst. that already contains undesired effects because nobody stais behind it. We are part of nature and do the very same thing nature does. We dont stay apart as observers! Hums. and nature are both not aware of consequences of their doing, Both are just pushing it forward somehow.

@RespectMyHate (wierd how Youtube organizes reactions on comments) anyway I agree with you on the Gates example... that he intentionally created software and someone is messing with it. Yes we do not fully understand genetics, but already we are aware of some crutial mechanisms that are driving genetics. The one is: no one designes it. Its RANDOM There is no prev. intention. Potentionally hazardous genetic modifs. are permanently ocouring in nature that man even never touchd.

[Petrhrabal]

@Petrhrabal Random genetic mutations are base of evolution. They are, I repeat, random. Those which can cope with outer conditions stay, others die. So humans are donig nothing bad by driving that process into their desired form. Victimizing people for doing wrong by GMOs seems little bit odd to me... Finally my 1st coment tried to mock approach I was feeling there that the best things are natural and man-made are bad, which is quite popular these days :/ Sry, It just pissed me off..

[RespectMyHate]

@Petrhrabal Its like this, Bill gates creates a highly complex computer program, then some laymen who has no idea how mr. gates program works, comes along and thinks he can make it better, I wonder what his success rate would be?

This is the same thing man is doing, man should not interfere with the genetic codes of anything, becuase we really still don't know how these things fully work, we are still trying to wrap our minds around them.

GMOs should never, be introduced to the environment.

[Petrhrabal]

@RespectMyHate I was reacting on your top rated com.in here. Humans are interfering with ,,nature,,for few tens of thousands of years and are searching for new ways and things and now genetic code should be some barrier not to cross? Just because genetic modification may appear complex, it does not mean that it is some thing that should not be done. Nobody said that ,,natural,, mutations in genetic code are perfect, They are just optimaly fitting conditions here and now.

[RespectMyHate]

@Petrhrabal Yeah, Your comment made no sense :(
