Be Careful What You Wish For
John Derbyshire:
John Derbyshire:
Now, weave in our recent thread about consumer eugenics and designer babies. If consumer eugenics becomes cheap and ubiquitous, as I suspect it will, won't religious people want their offsprings' genes tweaked to make them religious, too? With the result, if those differential birthrates hold up, that the world will become more religious generation by generation?I can think of few more things more damaging to religion that the discovery that it is even partly genetic in origin and readily manipulable. If your belief system can be set by simple genetic tweaking, as Derbyshire would have it, then it seems to be of no more significance than blue eyes or brown.
I'm not greatly concerned by this, but I think that those in favour of religion should be.

Happy New Year!
It's 2007.
It's 2007.
Well, nearly 2007.
2006.9998.
I'm sitting here watching AMV's and documenting Minx template tags. There's millions of the buggers.
