      Ah, China loves this. They got caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Kids... :laugh: IMHO, China is full speed a head on carrying out Hitler's dreams...a "perfect" race. China wants to be a country with super smart, super athletic, super humans, and they will get there eventually, I think. Edit: I have no proof to back up my opinions, but I would not be surprised in the slightest if other countries are performing the same top secret research, it would be stupid for them not to.

        Well, the Chinese government is investigating this now. Gene editing is illegal there.

          IMHO China has supported this research for years, and they will not stop.

                I worked for a company that produced kits for gene editing. A few times I heard the scientists expressing concern that anyone could buy a kit and start editing genes and create goodness knows what. It's an area where the is little to no regulation beyond the egos and morals of scientists and anyone who has worked with scientists will know that they differ very little, with regard to egos and morals, from the rest of the population.

                  No, they didn't. The guy went ahead with his illegal research without any kind of official backing, and even his colleagues in the lab didn't know what he was up to. He will probably end up spending a long time in prison, unlike the monsters who faked hormone-therapy test results in the West.
