GATTACA Becomes Reality as Scientists Start Screening and Aborting Human Babies Based on 3,500 ‘Genetic Faults’

The popular 1997 science fiction film Gattaca portrays a futuristic world in which human beings genetically engineered (GE) with certain desirable and superior genetic traits are given preference to natural-born human beings
who are considered inferior. ~ Ethan A Huff

In just 15 years since the release of
the film, this scenario has become a reality, as modern science has come
up with a new way to test unborn babies for roughly 3,500 so-called
genetic “defects.”

The U.K.’s Telegraph reports that a team of researchers from the University of Washington
(UW) in Seattle has contrived a method of examining the genetic code of
unborn babies via blood samples taken from their mothers, and saliva
samples taken from their fathers.

The tiny amounts of free-floating DNA
present in both samples allow researchers to essentially map the entire
genetic code of unborn babies and determine which genetic traits they
will have upon birth.

Some babies are born naturally with “de novo” mutations, which are
said to be linked to genetic defects such as Down syndrome and cystic
fibrosis.

These mutations are typically not passed down from parents to
their children, and are instead acquired in some other way, including
potentially through vaccinations and toxic environmental exposures.

In 39 out of 44 tested cases, the UW researchers were able to
accurately pinpoint prior to birth de novo mutations that would occur in
babies after birth.

As the technology becomes widely available to
parents in the near future, the ghastly scenario depicted in the movie Gattaca
will evolve into an ever-present reality where the only unborn babies
permitted to live and thrive will be those with “superior” genetic
makeups.

“This work opens up the possibility that we will be able to scan the
whole genome of the fetus for more than 3,000 single-gene disorders
through a single, non-invasive test,” said Dr. Jay Shendure, lead
scientist for the research published in the journal .

His entire team,
however, corporately added that “incorporating this level of information
into prenatal decision-making raises many ethical questions that must
be considered carefully within the scientific community and on a
societal level.”

Genetic screening will lead to more abortions, more eugenics, and a culture of genetic class suppression

When science starts openly
tampering with human life based on subjective perceptions of which
genetic traits are desirable and which are not desirable, there is no
stopping the pandora’s box of population control
techniques that will surely ensue.

Parents seeking the “perfect” child,
for instance, will be more likely to simply abort a child with genetic
“errors” and keep trying until they get the one they want.

As government-run healthcare emerges into full reality, state-controlled doctors may begin telling parents that they are not allowed
to have an imperfect child because treating that child’s inevitable
genetic conditions will cost the state too much money.

Forced abortions,
in other words, could become the norm if genetic testing techniques
like the ones developed at UW become widespread.

Ultimately, the breeding of genetically “superior” children will
more than likely lead to a genetically superior class of humans that
looks down on those with inferior genetic traits.

This is exactly what
occurred in the movie Gattaca, as “inferior” humans with natural imperfections were denied jobs and treated like second-class citizens.

Instead, researchers should be looking for ways to eliminate the
thousands of untested chemicals that are added to the food supply (http://www.naturalnews.com/035680_food_packaging_chemicals_PFOA.html), remove toxic fluoride chemicals from water supplies (http://www.fluoridealert.org/downs-syndrome.htm), and end the administration of gene-tampering vaccines to young children (http://www.naturalnews.com/033062_Rupert_Murdoch_Andrew_Wakefield.html).

These human interventions have been shown to be directly responsible
for causing genetic defects in humans, and are just a few of the many
causes of de novo mutations.

If unborn babies were not exposed to
chemicals like bisphenol A, herbicides like glyphosate (Roundup),
genetically-modified (GM) organisms, and chemical vaccine adjuvants like
Thimerosal (mercury) and aluminum, many of them would not even develop
genetic defects in the first place.

Recent research has proven that genetic damage caused by chemical
exposure can pass from generation to generation through a process known
as epigenetics, even when subsequent generations are not directly
exposed to those chemicals (http://www.naturalnews.com).

This means that man-made toxins such as those sprayed on conventional
food crops, added to processed foods, laced in the water supply, and
applied to furniture and other consumer products are a blatant scourge
on the human genome.

Science would rather ignore the obvious, and instead design technologies
that will allow the system to filter out genetic “undesirables” after
they have been conceived.

What Hitler and other deranged tyrants of the
past tried to accomplish violently is now becoming possible genetically
with “scientific advancement” as its cover.
