25 years ago, the idea that babies could be altered genetically for the purpose of correcting mutations or even specifying preferred genetic traits or skills was merely fantasy. This technology, and the ramifications of such a world were portrayed in detail by the 1997 movie, Gattaca.
HUMAN GENETIC ENGINEERING
Yet, in 2023 fantasy is quickly becoming reality. Human Genetic Engineering, using CRISPR and other programmable systems to target stretches of genetic code and edit DNA at precise locations is very desirable to many people.
Wow.
Do you think this is a purely humanistic, materialistic endeavor, or is there spiritual motivation?
So what does God think about this technology? Who’s kingdom will be glorified through CRISPR gene editing systems?
The Miracles & Atheists Podcast is re-releasing a fascinating conversation with Jason Deramo and Nick Snapp on the Miracles & Atheists Community Call-In (The MACC) show in two parts, where they examine the spiritual side of human genetic engineering and see if we can glean any insight into what’s going on.
