/^t/Gene experimentation is one of the dangers of today's civilization. Although this achievement has fascinated both scientists and average people, it may be also treacherous. By cloning, which is transferring new genes to embryos and developing them or by changing the code of chromosomes scientists can collapse a ballance of organisms. Thus gene experimentation means "playing with nature", modelling human beings and environments according to current needs without predicting the consequences. Indeed, the consequences of such process cannot be predicted. Besides, people may use it for their own benefits, regardless of many other dangers. In this light people should become more reluctant towards experimenting with genes and be aware not only of its advantages but also disadvantages.
