Why Do Human Genes Seem to Be Flawed More Than Other Animal Genes?
Question by EXPLORE THE TRUTH: Why do human genes seem to be flawed more than other animal genes?
SCIENTISTS are hard at work to try to find genetic causes for alcoholism, drug addiction, promiscuity, violence, other aberrant behavior, and even for death itself. Would it not be a relief to find that we are not responsible for our actions but are merely victims of biology? It is human nature to blame someone or something else for our errors.
If the genes are to blame, scientists hold out the possibility of changing them, eliminating undesirable traits through genetic engineering. The recent success in mapping the entire human genome has given such aspirations new impetus.
IS THERE A “SIN” GENE?
