Not so much the fact that they are "superior" to the average human being, but that their superiority makes them ... well, arrogant, for lack of a better term. That arrogance is dangerous ... and Soong doesn't see it.

But the dangers of 'playing God' are too great ... if he succeeds in bringing more of these embryos to term, I fear for the future on humankind. >:-] T'Lin http://www.geocities.com/tlin_s/ http://www.geocities.com/femme_fuhq_fest/index.html "It is Unethical to harm a patient ...
