What could threaten the integrity of your genes? Beyond the controversy about racial profiling a new danger is looming: under the guise of medical breakthroughs we are about to compromise the makeup of the human race and embark on a brave journey.

Physical attributes do not have a one on one relationship with our genes. Rather a combination of genes expresses a particular feature. Some races are more affected by the spread of AIDS or have a different tolerance to alcohol.

Farming body parts is just around the corner. Harvesting stem cells and growing them into whatever organ is needed is a brilliant medical discovery.

Problem is - what would happen if you implant an organ grown from stem cells not your own? Remember the outrage when some parents walked out of a maternity hospital with somebody else's baby? Now babies wear an ID tag the moment they are born to make sure there is no confusion.

Relating this on a genetic level what type of human beings are going to fork out of the mainstream by receiving implants which import a foreign set of genes?

If you thought haemophilia was an issue confined to some royal families and the Amish communities think again. Right now we can grow mice teeth in a petri dish. Next time you go to the dentist they will grow a hybrid to be implanted in your jaw. Much better than a gold crown. Now how can you be sure the implant they give you was grown out of your own stem cells - not the drug addict who walked in the day before you?

The emotional trauma of people born out of wedlock is one thing. Now our descendants will have to deal with parents who picked up some undesired genetic baggage simple by getting their teeth fixed... You thought the penalty for illicit sex was AIDS infection and venereal diseases. Now we have a whole new ball game.

Do you know that burn victims are being treated with spray-on skin grafts with amazing results? Where does the spray come from? You guessed it - genetically engineered living material.

So here is the challenge: on the premise of medical breakthrough we are about to compromise our very identity as human beings. If you were hatching a masterplan to destroy the human race as we know it you probably wouldn't come up with a better alternative!

Bringing it up to a spiritual level it is written that the enemy comes only to steal and kill and destroy but Jesus Christ came that we may have life, and have it to the full.

So here are your options: you can put your hope in the sorcerer's apprentice or you can seek divine healing at a church near you.
