Editing Creation

With the large amount of biological data available, biotech companies utilize AI, big data, and analysis to understand and engineer genomes for commercial purposes.

With the rapid reduction in genome sequencing costs, gene editing applications are becoming more prevalent and more widespread.

Gene sequencing and gene editing technologies can be applied to a variety of situations including human editing, animal manipulation, crop development, and pharmaceuticals.

Emerging biotech presents Christians with essential ethical questions and emerging challenges to God’s sovereignty.

Scientific Limits

Research and application of gene editing is increasing, despite a general global hesitancy. However, this hesitancy changes when asked about specific applications. When applied to illness or sickness there is a much higher acceptance than when considering enhancing humans.

There is a general global hesitancy towards gene editing.

Generally Christians across the globe hold a more reserved position than the general population regarding the use of gene editing to change genetic characteristics.
