Creating Life?
Man has created a synthetic life form. What does that mean for humanity/reality as a whole?
Are we intelligent enough, ethically mature enough to be trusted with engineering new life forms? Nature is constantly engineering new life forms, some within the species we know, and others that are completely new. They are created with a purpose and have developed out of environmental necessity. New life forms exist in harmony with their environment and with all of life, truly integrated by a local (specific) need in a natural pattern.
How can we know our creations will be: 1. necessary, 2. connected to the environment, 3. will not unbalance the harmony of nature?
