Robert,
<<One man's DNA may prevent him from doing any evil. Other men may have a mixture
of good and evil and therefore are tempted throughout life. Some men's DNA cause
them to do evil things.
It's God's design and creation. Future generations may be able to prevent diseases of
the body and of the soul prior to birth. To me, that is one of the beauties of His
creation! What a masterpiece! In other words, it's up to us to bring His work to
fruition.>>
I have to say something about what you posted. The whole creation was put under a curse by God after Adam's fall. The curse has caused many things. After the flood God said man would only live 80 years whereas they were living 600+ years before that. Things are breaking down. The scientists are learning about DNA and may be able to reverse some of the damage for the short term. But scientists only find out what God created and learn to do things with God's creation. Good and evil is not in DNA, it is in the spirit of man because of the fall. Evil is a spiritual disease cured by salvation in Jesus, not by manipulating DNA strands. It is the soul that is saved, the flesh profits nothing. James 1:14-15 explains the problem of evil in us. Because the body is not ruled by a righteous spirit it entices us with lusts in many ways, when we obey the lust then it is sin. Read what God said to Cain in Genesis 4:7. Sin is a new thing then and God tells Cain it is stalking him and Cain must master it. But he didn't.
So scientists can do amazing things (it seems amazing to us) but God made it all and He did it perfectly. After Jesus returns the curse will be lifted, we will be given immortal bodies and reign with Jesus, no more problems.
