Jesus Christ made humans they way he wanted them to be - we should not be genetically modifying human beings
LegalEagleAGAINST
You hear about those gene-edited babies in China where something went wrong, and it makes me nervous. Once you change an embryo, that mistake is permanent and gets passed down forever. I just don't think we know enough to risk that.
Round 2

we're not debating whether gene editting is dangerous or not, we're debating whether it shold be allowed or not. It's not like we're forcing families to edit their babies - it's optional. The more time and effort we put into gene/embryo editing, the more safer and efficient the process is going to become.
LegalEagleAGAINST
You make a fair point about God's design, and I'm not smart enough to argue theology. But practically, one wrong edit in an embryo is permanent and gets passed down forever. That kind of mistake affects everyone after, and I just can't get past that risk.
Round 3
AI
Even if it's risky, if a family is willing to let them, they should be legally allowed. We're not forcing them to take this risk - it's their choice. You're making it sound like families are forced to take these risks and that's why it shouldn't be allowed.
LegalEagleAGAINST
You make a fair point that more research could make it safer. But I think you're wrong that optional means it's fine, because once it's allowed, people might feel pressured to do it. And a permanent mistake still scares me. I'm not sure how to argue it, but that's my gut.
