Title: Birth Of World's First Gene-Edited Babies
Post by: Palumboism on November 27, 2018, 01:45:43 PM
Birth of world's first gene-edited babies triggers ethical outcry

Michael Irving
The world's first gene-edited human babies have reportedly been born in China. Professor Jiankui He claims that by removing a specific gene from the embryos using the CRISPR-Cas9 technique, the twin girls would have a natural immunity to HIV. But it seems the girls have been born in the eye of an ethical storm, as scientists around the world question the safety, effectiveness and morality of the procedure.

In a video posted to YouTube, the He Lab says the process began with a fairly normal IVF procedure. After the father's sperm fertilized the mother's egg, an embryologist injected the CRISPR-Cas9 proteins into the cell, which performed a "gene surgery" that deleted a gene known as CCR5. This gene encodes for a protein that HIV uses to enter a cell, so by removing it He says the girls should develop a natural immunity to the virus.

China will begin cloning genetically perfect super humans shortly.  They see nothing wrong with this.

Seems like a decent idea, to get back to eugenics. What could go wrong?

So, in the future, the Chinese will be immune to HIV. That's fantastic!

I worked on crisprCAS9 at SNBL USA. This technology has limitless applications and has the potential for both the making of modern medicine obsolete (life extension technology) or being used in ways as devious as making A RACE BOMB........yes......tar geting a specific race for extermination. The small Chinese company that we began trials for had VERY OMINOUS and borderline questionable silent backing from novo nordisk which was VERY peculiar. Trust me when I say that this technology will result in infinitely more mind blowing controversy than what they are talking about right now. Very scary stuff when you take the  human nature in the modern tech nerd and his affinity for defying concept of God and deifying science.

It's not cheating when everyone are doing it, which will be the norm in 20 years.

Will China mass-produce soldiers with immunity against HIV?

This would be difficult to do a widespread basis.

The rich will jump on it.

And create a super-rich super-race.

They will be smarter, stronger, healthier and even better looking and only keep amongst themselves.

The rest will be an underclass, and eventually be like a different race unless it was made widely accessible which in itself would cause other problems.

Already, the gap between the rich and poor is the highest it's been in human history, a nationless group of plutocrats who can live wherever they wish. With this, alertering of their babies genetics, it will put them at a new level.

Have you watched the Olympics?

They rescind medals if you've been proven to use ped's.  People dont know what isnt cheating but they know what it is.

Western nations should get onboard with this and gene edit a few million whites to counter low birthrates. Much better than allowing in third world apes.

What about genetically modified humans competing in the Olympics and other sports?

This will be a nightmare for liberal/leftist political correctness.

In the next 100 years there will be an elite 1-2% of the population living in luxury in gated heavily guarded communities.  Everyone else will live in squalor.

do not think in terms of either or.... think in terms of all the above, and more.

AI is a means to an end; a tool - among others... manifested – pulled from the abyss - for the subjugation and fundamental transformation of a divinely created man into an irredeemable, short lived abomination... before extermination - resulting in damnation.

humanity is on the highway to hell, homie... look around.

This technology completely “cured” multiple myeloma. You really need to understand how limitless the potential applications for this technology really are I guess.

When I said it would make modern medicine obsolete.....what exactly did you picture I meant?

Being over 6 foot may be a detriment in the future.  There is nothing that makes it genetically elite.

there's a reason most of the best bodybuilders are under 6 foot , over that height they will look like scarecrows , which is obviously why you're so bitter , without a syringe in your ass you'd disappear
