Human Nature: good‚ evil‚ or neutral.

Abstract Human genetic engineering is the manipulation of an individual’s genotype with the goal of choosing the phenotype (Singers 1). This has already been a very controversial issue when it has been done on animals‚ but tampering with humans takes this issue to a whole different level. It holds the promise of curing genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis and improving the immunity of people to viruses (Konner 4). However‚ it also opens up a whole new world where the laws of nature can be broken

The Effect of Nuclear Energy on Human * As we all know‚ nuclear energy is a non-renewable energy. The science of atomic radiation‚ atomic change and nuclear fission was developed from 1895 to 1945‚ much of it in the last six of those years (WMA‚ 2010). Since then human have begun expanding their research on nuclear energy and sadly during year 1939 to year 1949‚ nuclear energy was only used for creating atomic bomb by many of the countries back then such as Japan‚ Germany‚ United States of
