The embryo is already deaf. <BR/><BR/>The goverment is saying they must by law pick a hearing embryo and throw away the deaf one. Which is eugenics. <BR/><BR/>If you read the other interview, they say they'd prefer to pick one at random, and not have people picking 'perfect babies'. <BR/><BR/>And sorry, but you're shouting at a deaf guy cos he can't speak english? Yes some deaf people speak, but there's a reason most use sign language rather than speaking. I'm sure you'll think of it eventually. <BR/><BR/>And by the way, there are 4 recognised, government funded languages in the UK. They're English, Welsh, Cornish, and BSL (British Sign Language).<BR/><BR/>BSL is a language in its own right, with a lot of research on it, and it grew and evolved right here in England, so it's much more an ENGLISH language than say Cornish or Welsh. <BR/><BR/>What you call English is mostly a dogbag of french / latin / greek / saxon / etc imports. <BR/><BR/>On some definitions, BSL is more english than the English language. <BR/><BR/>Yes I'm stretching a point, but my general message is:<BR/> <BR/>You fail.JoeBloggsnoreply@blogger.com
