Gatacca



.16.I Believe that there should be some restrictions placed on the genetic engineering advances, because people can easily misuses this for there advantage. Genetic enineerging should not be allowed at all since it can corrupt this world and cause a lot of chaos powerful people can easily start enginnering whoever they want. It should be alowed to get rid of serious diseases but only with the goverments approval since without these diseases the world might become overcrowded17. Human Cloning should have been forbidden all together, since, people with more and money can soon replace whoever they want, and illegally start controlling entire countries through human cloning. Cloning of animals in order to make food should be permitted but of people, no. If someone cannot have a child they need to find a different solution since if this is under the wrong hands it can turn into chaos.

I believe that GATTACA was a good movie, That had an important message. At the time when i watched the movie, i had little knowledge about DNA, or genetic diseases, which of course meant that i didn't always understand what was going on. GATTACA showed the dangerous side of genetic modification, the side that could destroy and divide our society. 
Even though the movie covers the same scientific idea, DNA, as the Documentary Cracking the code of life there are some differences.GATTACA is looking into the future, and shows the negative side of generic, while Cracking the Code of life shows what researchers have found so far, and the plus side of genetic research. GATTACA  also covered more social, and ethical issues, while Cracking The Code of life was strictly scientific and showed genetic research as a great thing.
