DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGenetic engineering makes promises of a world free of genetic 
 diseases.  Parents might be able to control their offspring’s height, eye 
 color and intelligence.  But is the science of genetic engineering advanced 
 enough?  Could there be unintended consequences and new diseases that 
 result?\n\nIn the movie Gattaca, the vast majority of people were 
 genetically engineered but those of natural birth were treated as if they 
 were disabled people.  Is the genetic engineering of babies morally wrong?  
 Could it lead to eugenics and a stratified society where only the wealthy 
 enjoy the benefits of genetic enhancement? \n\n\nNita Farahany and Lee

 Babies"\nPhoto: Samuel LaHoz\n\nRobert Winston argues in favor of banning

 Files and the article “Eleven Years after 9/11, Guantánamo Is a

 Holder’s not prosecuted Bush-era torturers?\nSource: Scott Horton's Radio
