Recipe for Depression
Listen to a "bioethics" debate where the morality of genetic engineering is not questioned until 30 minutes into a 35 minute segment.
This reminds me of a story about two priests I know who went to a "bioethics" lecture. The speaker went on and on about how great genetic engineering would be; "Who wouldn't want a 'designer baby?" she asked the audience.
Well, priest #1 (who for anonymity's sake I will call Father Angel Force) half-spoke/half-shouted out loud to his priest-friend seated three seats away, "Why doesn't anybody want to just do it anymore? I'd think that would be fun!"
