(Modified is genetically modified. They were forced to be born that way.)
Thanks that makes things much clearer
Erase modifications?
That is what we do, and are doing!
It is the modifications that are the problem but there is no way to "unmodify" someone.
Once an organism has matured it is pretty much stuck like that, with no stem cells the body cannot change it can only regrow and replace minor cells.
Any attempt to alter it will only riddle it with cancer (or as an intresting expirement proved back in 198 SCAU if the organism has stem cells it can potentialy form several new organisms when an effort to change it's DNA is aplied as the cells broke away from something that was geneticly different to them and therefore a different organism).
How do we handle drugs trafficing?
We arrest the trafficer, seize the drugs, charge the trafficer, destroy the drugs.
How do we handle illegal weapons?
We arrest the owner, seize the weapons, charge the owner, destroy the weapons.
So why should we handle illeagal genetic modification any different?
What other way is there to correct the mistakes made in their creation.
I don't deny that they feel pain and suffering because they clearly do.
The human body is far from prefect but the internal interactions are far too complicated for any one person to understand, heck the entire knowledge base of our civilisation can doesn't completly understand it.
So even the smallest changes can cause problems and medical issues that you never expected.
99 out of 100 times something doesn't work right with the other systems in the body, usualy causing excrutiating pain.
Sigh...this may be the place, but it's certainly not time.
Have those probes been sent yet?
