Explore the ethical dilemmas surrounding genetic engineering and gene editing technologies, such as CRISPR, in humans. Analyze the potential benefits of genetic engineering, such as the elimination of genetic disorders, enhanced human abilities, and extended life expectancy. On the other hand, discuss the moral concerns, including issues related to “designer babies,” the widening gap between the rich and poor, and potential unintended consequences on human health. Include perspectives from bioethicists, scientists, and religious groups, and examine real-world cases where genetic engineering has been attempted or is under consideration. Conclude with a balanced discussion on whether the benefits outweigh the risks and ethical concerns.
