Do you think the benefits to Human Welfare, are worth creating Transgenic Animals?

1 Answer

Answer :

Right, so as you and I have talked of using ‘regular’ animals as being (for me, anyway) morally reprehensible, I do not feel comfortable and believe that humans would venture into transgenic animal usage without an ethical mind, whatsoever. I, myself, am for AI and transhumanism but I really don’t think our society will handle either in a just way.
