Could you please elaborate on that?
It helps, in a discussion, to make your point clear and back any statement with facts or opinion.
Just saying "I agree" or "I disagree" with no reasoning behind it does no good for your side of the case.
Sorry for the interruption...
Now, for my opinion:
Eugenics is morally wrong. Adolf Hitler attempted to create a "master race" which lead to the Holocaust. Nothing good can come from it. In theory, you would be creating mutations even more undesirable than what already exists in society.
Haven't people learned from what happens in animals when they breed them for certain characteristics? Look at how the life spans of certain breeds of dog are so short due to all the inbreeding and crossbreeding done for certain traits.
We've come this far without cloning and breeding "super humans". I think it only spells trouble.
