Some I can understand correct. I am concerned about where the limits are though. Do you think we shouldn’t eliminate birth defects, diseases, etc?

Ultimately it probably won’t matter what laws a country passes. Some country somewhere is going to set no limits. People will be able to go there to get what they want.

We completely and utterly lack the knowledge to responsibly address those things.

One example, eliminating sickle cell anemia sounds like a good idea.
But in Africa where it is most prevalent it became prevalent because it also helps.those who have it survive malaria.

How many things are like that?

You have to pass bill before you can find out what’s in it.

You have to eliminate genetic oddities before you find out they are prerequisites for surviving forgotten epidemics.
