100 genes linked to autism discovered... bad news for future autistic children

www.telegraph.co.uk/.../Autism-screening-closer-as-100-genes-linked-to-disorder-are-identified.html

The article says "It raises the prospect that couples undergoing IVF would be able to select embryos without the mutations and prevent their children developing autism." So basically, couples will be able to commit genocide. This is sickening. Why is it that we are constantly seen as negative? Why are genes that cause corruption and greed not being identified and wiped out? Reading this has completely ruined my day and made me incredibly worried about the future of this planet. I can't stand the arrogant NT attitude that we are somehow "wrong" and they are right. THEY are the ones who gawp at rubbish like TOWIE and Made In Chelsea. THAT is the weird behaviour, not us wanting to feel in touch with our surroundings. It all makes me want to give up

  • Its the use of deriviatives of root term "mutant" that I find most perjorative here. Factually, every gene has been "mutated" by the processes of life...such is fundemental to the evolutionary process...given that all genes are mutant genes, the use of such terms here can only be deliberate dehumanisiation...
