How do We Explain E. ADEM to Mr. Darwin?
related social problem and conception impact.
Dear Mr. Darwin: You have already known about Synthetic Biology, don't you? [http://dsc.discovery.com/technology/slideshow/synthetic-biologists-darwin.html] I'm gonna talk to you about our novel project in Synthetic Biology field. Since it is based on and closely related to the Evolutionism, I think you'll be interested. As you have known, the same stuff called DNA stores all the secrets of life and dominate the features of creature individual. Synthetic Biologists are changing the DNA sequence 'designing and synthetizing' the new forms of life. But we are trying something new. We choose to do 'synthetizing and evolving' in a living creature. It sounds crazy, you may say, as other people may think. We not only want to give evolution a direction but also try to make the process automatic as the first steam locomotive in the world of synthetic biology. It seems that we are employing one of the most powerful force to creat what we want, perhaps a living. This prospect may leave many people jittery. (I don't know whether you were jittery or not when you discovered the most deeply covered secret of evolution.) You certainly had more strong feelings about the power of the evolution after seeing the fossils in person on the voyage of the Beagle. We have thought about this question seriously. The final purpose of our project is to evolve anything including a system--a system that holds the potential to be a new form of life. Is it true that when we finally reach this destination we will have the chance to play God?
