“YOU” in the same world

It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has

exceeded our humanity. ~Albert Einstein

Technology... is a queer thing. It brings you

great gifts with one hand, and it stabs you in

the back with the other.

~C.P. Snow, New York Times, 15 March 1971

Advancement of technology is good. But

whether it is ethical or not depends on how

we use them, what we use them on and what

are the impacts it brings about the society.

What are your views for human cloning?

Do you think it is ethical?

How far should humans go about in improving

the technology?

Does it affect human development in the long

run?

Is there an end to it?
