I’m happy if the outcome is good for the baby but this stuff scares the heck out of me.

If this were genetically "editing" a fetus, or otherwise altering an embryo, I would have some issue with that. Genetic therapy is already being done with adults, it was just a matter of time before the patient was much younger.

But the LAST thing that I want to see happening is the creation of Khan Noonien Singh.

It does me, too, but I do know an older man who has an enzyme deficiency that has caused him problems his whole life and he volunteered to be a test subject for the procedure.

I guess they didn’t even know if he’d survive it not because it’s dangerous but it’s believer and not afraid of dying.

Most new treatments can be scary but five years from now it will be routine.
