Should we be able to genetically enhance ourselves or our children? Should we be able to add technology to our bodies? Is it OK to have surgery that gives us the sight of eagles or makes it possible to fly?
Should we be allowed to change our species altogether? What about people who want to be wolves or cats? Or beetles?
The desire to improve or change the human species has caused a lot of misery in the past. But we are now entering an era where it may be unstoppable. Will we be wise enough to solve the ethical problems involved? Will we know where to draw the line?
Come to GeekSpeak and tell us what your descendants will look like in two hundred years.
