I would guess that within 50 years we will have genetic treatments for defects like ALS. It may be a bit longer before we twiddle with the germline.

Opposition is already lined up. What happens if there turns out to be a simple childhood injection that boosts intelligence or athletic ability?

We have a genetic treatment now, provided by our own immune systems. Proper diet, dump the sugar, pasta, french fries, and any manufactured drug, or cosmetic junk, cleaning products, etc, supplement calcium if necessary to achieve a near 7.0 body ph, and ALS and MS dissappear.
