Designer Babies

Haven't put hours of thought into this, so im sure someone who is a friggen genius is going to try to make me feel like an idiot, but I'm definitely for the whole disease resistance thing.

I hate overpopulation as much as the next guy (go to Disneyworld around Christmas and you will too) but its not worth voluntarily going out of your way to leave yourself more susceptible to disease. As someone else mentioned, it would also prompt further exploration for alternate living areas (if we could develop shit underwater we'd be fine for a long-ass time). I really dislike the fact that certain kids are born with certain disadvantages that they don't deserve, so yea, 100% for the disease resistance.

As far as the other shit goes, for physical aspects, I say go for it. Maybe if everybody looked alike people would pay more attention to shit that isn't physical...and then the age of the goodlooking getting everything (including job offers that require no talent) would be over.

Mental crap (like choosing intelligence) I am on the complete other end of the spectrum for. Being able to choose your childs intelligence or personality...I just don't want to consider that ever, honestly.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
