Slate: Baby Needs a New Set of Genes – Everyone’s against genetic discrimination. Or so they think. by Michael Kinsley
“So this ban on genetic discrimination that everyone seems
to be for would, if applied consistently, be an exercise in social
leveling like nothing since the Khmer Rouge turned Cambodia
into Kampuchea. That seems to leave only two logically
coherent positions, both intolerable: 1) level away; or 2) don’t
start down this road, because there’s no place to stop.” Does Kinsley really think we’ll stop and think just because we’re on a slippery slope??
