These sources discuss the ethical considerations and societal impacts of reproductive technology, particularly focusing on genetic enhancement and genome editing. They explore the debate surrounding modifying the human germline, the potential for genetic discrimination, and how scientific accuracy in predicting traits is often overstated, as exemplified by the film "Gattaca." The texts highlight concerns about preserving human nature, the irreversible nature of germline modifications, and the rights of modified individuals. The need for public dialogue and careful regulation of these powerful technologies is emphasized throughout the sources.Sources:
