Just because we gain the technology to do something doesn't mean that we should. The problem will be when it comes to fixing genetic defects and how the definition of what consists of a defect starts to change.

Its funny how we've spent years trying to encourage diversity and tolerance and then turn around and try to make our progeny meet the cultural standards of "perfection".

Florida Abortionist Held Accountable—Stripped of Medical License in Hialeah Baby Murder Case
Troy Newman (February 9, 2009)
"We are very grateful to the Florida Medical Board for stripping Renelique of his medical license. His incompetence led to the brutal death of an innocent baby born alive, and we are grateful that he will not be afforded the opportunity of hurting anyone else…"

(Tampa, Florida)—On Friday morning, the Florida Board of Medicine revoked the medical license of Pierre Renelique, a Florida abortionist who failed to show up for a scheduled late-term abortion at a Hialeah clinic in July, 2006. As a result, unlicensed workers delivered a live 23-week old baby girl, shoved the struggling baby into trash bag, and stashed her body on the roof.

The Board found Renelique guilty of medical malpractice and delegating responsibility to unlicensed personnel.

"We are very grateful to the Florida Medical Board for stripping Renelique of his medical license. His incompetence led to the brutal death of an innocent baby born alive, and we are grateful that he will not be afforded the opportunity of hurting anyone else," said Operation Rescue Troy Newman. "Justice was delayed but justice has been at least partially served. We will continue to work to hold the abortion industry accountable until women and babies are safe from these incompetent, predatory abortionists."

Police, working on an informant's tip, were able to recover the little girl's body. An autopsy determined that she had air in her lungs and had therefore been born alive. A second evaluation of the autopsy determined that actions taken by unlicensed abortion worker Belkis Gonzalez caused her death.

The baby, Shanice Denise Osbourne, was finally given a proper burial in October, 2008, and just last week a civil suit was filed against Renelique, Gonzalez, and others on behalf of Shanice.

Criminal charges have yet to be filed, but a spokesperson for the state attorney's office told reporters that a decision on criminal charges is expected soon.

"This was the first step in finally holding Shanice's killers accountable for her murder. We look forward to seeing criminal charges filed very soon," said Newman. Operation Rescue has been encouraging calls to the prosecutor David Waksman, who had delayed pressing charges for over two years.

"This is an open and shut case, as shown by the Medical Boards actions today. There is no more reason for delay. Causing the death of someone, even if they are terminal, is still murder in anyone's book," said Newman.

I wonder if blonde, blue-eyed, strong Teutonic children will be the most popular choice...

[EvoUK]

I've alway found this interesting. Is it a good idea? A bad one?

I see no reason why some form of this wouldn't be available in the future, being able to chose certain physical traits of the child- sex, hair colour etc. Though it is certainly harder said than done to chose for traits such as intelligence or sporting ability.

My main concern is this will be yet another advantage wealthy parents will use for their family. As it is, one could argue that they have an advantage at the moment, as they have the money to pay for better schooling, and to provide their children with a better quality of upbringing.

I should think that many parents who could afford it will use any advantage that they can to give their children an edge in life, which will increase the gap between them and less well off families.

It also brings into question what would happen to universities. Some potential pupils will be biologically advantaged to others, simply because mummy and daddy bought them good genes.

Sports would be effected- will we have an olympics where non-modified humans can no longer compete?

As the articles states..what happens when mummy and daddy have chosen their blonde, brown eyed intellectual boy with good sports genes and it turns out to be a boy with blue eyes, black hair and a knack for music instead.

Will they sue. Will the child be witness to his mummy and daddy fighting the doctors b/c he didn't turn out the way they wanted him too. [imagine the case dragging on until he's of age to recognize the horror of what's happening]

I think it's a horrid idea! and that's just one problem i have with it.

Heil, die Uebermenschen!

We should make it so they all turn out to be tall, long blonde hair and name them Elvish names. Then have Dwarves, hobbits...oh man. We can now make Middle-Earth a reality!

Probably not with those parents that are Asian, African or Native American
