I get that editing embryos could help prevent awful diseases, and that sounds good. But messing with the very start of a human life feels like crossing a line we can't undo. It worries me how far that might go, honestly.
Did you know most people around the world actually oppose editing embryos? A global survey found over 70% say no. I know you're right that it could fight disease, but that many people feeling uneasy tells me we should slow down.
Remember that scientist in China who actually edited embryos? It caused a huge scandal and he went to prison. You make a fair point about preventing diseases, but that example shows how easily this could be misused. I just think we're not ready for that responsibility.
