Moral or Atrocity

Have you heard that people are now using genetic testing on embryos to pick their children? Some are eliminating those with genetic disorders--even if they might not "pop" up until late in life. Others are also using it to pick the color of their child's eyes, hair, etc.

Doesn't sound so bad? Well, when Hitler was doing genetic experimentation on the Jews and was eliminating all genes he did not like so that he could populate the world with his master race, it was an atrocity! Yet here we are today doing the same thing to embryos so that we can control the ideal race that we want to carry on. Hasn't medicine gone too far? Just because we can do something, doesn't mean we should. Period. Morals and morality are deteriorating rapidly and we must put a stop to it now. We must draw the line in sand over which no one must cross.

With all the talk of health care reform and the government controlling our medical treatments and outcomes, it is only a matter of time before those deemed genetically inferior must be allowed to perish or be exterminated much as Hitler did. What is to stop them? Hopefully, a population with the morality not to play God and allow all to not only exist, but also be provided the necessary health care and nourishment that we need.

Otherwise, "Heil Hitler"!
