Science is a creature that continues to evolve at a much higher rate than the beings that

gave it birth. The transformation time from tree-shrew, to ape, to human far exceeds the time

from analytical engine, to calculator, to computer. But science, in the past, has always remained

distant. It has allowed for advances in production, transportation, and even entertainment, but

never in history will science be able to so deeply affect our lives as genetic engineering will

undoubtedly do. With the birth of this new technology, scientific extremists and anti-technologists

have risen in arms to block its budding future. Spreading fear by misinterpretation

of facts, they promote their hidden agendas in the halls of the United States congress. Genetic

engineering is a safe and powerful tool that will yield unprecedented results, specifically in the

field of medicine. It will usher in a world where gene defects, bacterial disease, and even aging

are a thing of the past. By understanding genetic engineering and its history, discovering its

possibilities, and answering the moral and safety questions it brings forth, the blanket of fear
