Genetic treatment is is gene therapy, which is using genetic material to help fight a disease, it is for the health and well being of the patient. Genetic enhancement is adjusting the genetic makeup of a person by using genetic material to do so.
Summarize Glannon, Savulescu, and Sandel’s reasons for considering genetic enhancement ethically acceptable or unacceptable.
Glannon finds genetic enhancement as an unfair advantage, and is against it ethically. Savulescu finds it important to continue to strive for the best in terms of enhancement. Sandel believes is is exactly opposite of what Savulescu suggests, as his case strongly suggests that there are many things wrong with enhancing the human race.
I personally believe that Genetic enhancement does give people an unfair advantage, as we would find people with money to find power in everything about enhancing their bodies. We would find men and women who would be unattainable in beauty standards as well as people who are genetically enhanced much stronger. With strength, this would eliminate natural selection in terms of athletes being able to try out for professional teams, people who have actual natural strength and abilities, as they would be competing against genetically enhanced people who would be more inclined to run faster, or throw harder, etc. We also do not know or understand the implications of genetically enhanced people and future generations, as we do not know what these changes will do with future genetic formulations. What if a genetically enhanced person breeds with a non enhanced person? What if two genetically enhanced people breed and we find that it is very detrimental to future viability of the offspring? I think it is a very interesting idea, and maybe we should be able to understand it more in the future by testing it, BUT I honestly do not feel as though I would ever want to see these kinds of options available to my children. We spend a lot of years learning to accept ourselves now, how hard would it be for future generations to feel desire or greatness in themselves if they were consistently failing in comparison to these altered beings?

Enter into the debate yourselves by providing your own opinion on whether or not correct grammar is always necessary. Consider the following questions as you construct your post: Do you feel that grammar is a reflection of intelligence? Could "bad" grammar possibly be a reflection of something else? (Discuss one of the intersecting privileges that Fabello argues reinforces our concept of "correct" grammar.) How do you feel when you notice improper grammar when someone is speaking and/or writing? Conversely, how do you feel when someone corrects your grammar? Are you appreciative, annoyed, etc? Do you feel that we should always practice good grammar, or do you believe that grammar is conditional and should only be heeded in certain scenarios? In other words, is it permissible to use "improper" grammar with friends or family and not permissible to use in school, on the job, etc?

The purpose of this exercise is to practice writing an abstract of an academic work. An abstract is a concise summary of the topic, goals, content, and argument of an academic work. Learning to write a good abstract is a key step in developing a critique of an academic work—you cannot provide a good critique of an article or book until you are able to first summarize the author’s argument and the evidence she uses to support it.
Assignment:
For this exercise, write a 150-200 word abstract of chapter 5 (“The Phenomenology of Terror”) in Buried Secrets by Victoria Sanford.
Your goal is to provide a succinct summary of: the topic of the chapter, Sanford’s thesis in the chapter, and the data she uses to support it.
Guidelines:
The first sentence(s) should describe accurately and concisely the main theme of the chapter: What is it about? What is the main topic??Where, when, and with whom was the research done?
The following sentence(s) should concisely state the author’s thesis and how she argues her position. Remember that a thesis must be stated in the form of an argument, not a statement of fact.
The next sentence(s) should briefly outline the information that the author uses to support her thesis. For example, is the data ethnographic or is it historical or a combination of both? Does the author draw primarily on media sources or did she conduct interviews? With whom did she conduct interviews and why? How does the author present or organize her data to support her case?
Your abstract should end with a summary of the implications of the chapter: Why is this chapter significant? What does the author accomplish or hope to accomplish by presenting this data?
