In general I agree but I believe there are areas forbidden to man like technology creating man/animal hybrids, manipulating genetic material that “enhance human function” (Can’t be done but they still try) cloning human beings, building a Tower to reach Heaven, etc. It’s like man wants to be God even from the beginning.

I totally agree with you there. I think trying to genetically modify what God has made can be very evil.

But I think if bad genes could be replaced with good ones to heal conditions, that might be viewed as very beneficial to mankind. I’m thinking of one, not handicapping, just disfiguring that I’ve had since preadolescence. One bad, bad gene. That I unfortunately passed on to some of my children and grandchildren and it really makes me sad.

It is called hubris. The Greek gods hated this in man. What does our God feel about it?

True. But in many ways technology always does that in some way. This is just closer.
