Does this mean that Star Trek was right, just off for a couple of centuries?


I say, let genetic engineering come. Let anything come, I don't care. If some people want to control this pathetic species or this lone planet, let them. They will die eventualy as well. History is full with people and beings trying to play "god". I think it is the desire to validate themselves or something like that.
Anyway, if the humans can't handle some aggressive genetic mutation, then so be it, I am sure other species will be able to evolve after few more million years.
