Strict bioconservatives tend to oppose the genetic and cognitive modification of human beings. Opposition of medical and other technological advances is generally justified in the defense of "the natural" and what it means to be human. However, bioconservatism and technology are not mutually exclusive when it comes to science that does not challenge current bioethical norms. While they are not categorically dismissive or in direct opposition to all technology, most bioconservatives feel that the progression of biotechnology is a danger that often outweighs the benefits, particularly those technologies that may erode the traditional family structure or religious values. Specific examples of these technologies include embryonic stem-cell research, chimera research, and therapeutic cloning. [ See All Results ] |
