The idea of progress - Pierre-Yves Reignoux TS3

The first document is an image. We can see a conveyor belt with four men on it who look the same and one man who is catch by a giant claw because he is different and into a skip we see lot of person who are different one with three eyes one hand with six finger this document represent a form of selective breeding. The ideal of human for this cartoon it's a white man with black hair and who is strong. It's look like the idea of race of Adolf Hitler who think the best race is the ariens. The good point with selective breeding the racism is annihilated but this similarity stop the creation of new idea and they destroy any different form of life which are different of them.






The second document is a text who talk about test tube baby thanks to that process babies haven't diseases but it's against nature and this science must be treated with caution because it affects the modication of the human phenotype. If creation of specifics baby isn't regulated, at the end the humanity is only created by this process. If a man want to create an army of perfect soldiers he can use this process for control his army so this experimentation must be controlled by a man who have a sense of ethics






The third and last document is an extract from a film “The sixth day”. We can a father who go in a shop called “REPET” who cloned animals. In the shop, a saler come to the father and explain the qualities of cloning, he ask to the father who is dead. The father says it's his daughter's dog who died this morning. The father want to clone the dog so his daughter doesn't know. The saler secure to the father they're as safe as real pets and they're insured but the father think they haven't soul and they're dangerous. These animals aren't the same as the original so they can be dangerous for the owner
