Opinions and Viewpoints on Genetic Engineering

"The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science, along with behavior control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers
-Lewis Thomas (1913-1993)

Natural species are the library from which genetic engineers can work.
Genetic engineers don't make new genes, they rearrange existing ones.
-Thomas E. Lovejoy

"Even minor tampering with nature is apt to bring serious consequences, as did the introduction of a single chemical (DDT). Genetic engineering is tampering on a monumental scale, and nature will surely exact a heavy toll for this trespass."
-Eva Novotny

"Humans have long since possessed the tools for crafting a better world. Where love, compassion, altruism and justice have failed, genetic manipulation will not succeed."
-Gina Maranto
