    On one hand, crispr isn’t safe. And life is not something people have a right to create - that tremendous imposition should be met with a responsibility

    On the other hand, life is treated as cheap almost everywhere. If we’re going to force people to justify their right to exist, why not take a chance on their genetics to improve the species?

    I mean, this was risky science, but not reckless. At some point we need to start fixing our genome, or we’re just going to poison ourselves to extinction
