The Idea of progress (Kilian TES2)

To illustrate the idea of progress, I choose 3 types of progress form, the technical science, the science for the social, and progress aberation. To begin, with a film, « The sixth day ». This film talk about the clone, in particulary the petclone, for exemple daughter dog. So the shop could create the same dog, with a proven technologie, but maybe he haven't soul. So cloning animal have good advantages, and desavanteges. Maybe clone could be dangerous if humans are cloning. For me, clones are a form of idea of progress because to clone need a new technologie. Second, with the science for the social, with « Brave New World », Huxley. In this books, they can create a lot of identical babies. The problem about this technologie, is that everyboby would be the same. They would't be any originality, novelty or diversity, this is the problem of the creation. They can control the population, and can desumanize people. But women who can't have babies naturally could have them with this progress. Cloning depending the goal to use that, he could be an advantage. Everyboby are concern by this problem, it's a society problem. Third, the CHS Globe Online, January. For illustrate the document, there are a comic picture. She represent a test-tube baby, the baby look like the scientist. The scientists are fat, ugly and the near-sighted his ironic that they. Because, of below this picture, we can read « nobody's perfect but we working on it » The text compare cloning at a baby shop. Designer baby depersonalizes peaples. In the United States, cloning is illegal. But many think that shouldn't be. Some people claim that humans have already been cloned al though it's illegal. For me, this progress represent a aberation, because, chose the baby for me no represent the progress, anly dehumanisation.
