In case you hadn't noticed, it took "natural selection" a billion years to get us here and it was a viciously cruel, merciless process involving petatrillions of horrible deaths.

These days, we don't use "natural selection" to build bridges, do brain operations or design cyberphones. We use thinking, knowledge, science and the modern accoutrements of people.

It's odd that you think something as important as "designing and producing an actual baby which will grow into a person", should be done by a drawing of lots, short straw goes in the mincer, luck, blind faith, hope, fingers crossed and whatever the latest throw of the dice presents, whereas you are probably one of those busy-bodies who think people shouldn't be allowed to build a house without some government permit person pontificating, penalizing and preventing.

<The process of natural selection accomplishes that without any quality inspectors. >

I don't believe you leave your life in the hands of people using "natural selection" to handle your purchases, design your brakes, bridges, and medical problems.
