My neighbor brought up gene editing for sports, and now I can't stop thinking about it.
I was having a beer with my neighbor last week, and he talked about parents editing genes so kids are better at sports (like, to run faster or be stronger). This made me think about where to stop. For instance, fixing a sickness seems right, but adding skills feels wrong. I saw a news piece where doctors changed genes to stop a heart problem, which is good. But making someone taller just for sports? That seems off, you know? I'm confused on this, and I want to know what you think. Have you dealt with similar thoughts?
