For such reason, it has become difficult to figure out who would really be the one to be pleased with the modification he has done without any interruption from others.

I don't like the idea of "enhanced" people because they distingusih themselves from others as a mainsream and classify the others into either "Natural" or "The Rest". Since the standard is set on the "enhanced" people, laws and rules are on the constant change due to the rapid enhancement of people.

One of the modifications done inside of human beings is in vitro fertilization and as the technology will eventually be developed, several matters would arise along with it. When pepole become capable of fixing genes of newborn baby, they would definitely attempt to "design" a child, and thus parents literally create a child as they like. However, having a baby is a precious event and some of the marvelous talent are gifted thing; artificially modified people have no appreciation to wonderful of nature but rather they could have dangerous idea of fixing whatever they don't like not only statistic things or so but also living creatures. The other thing is it would bring ethical issue or matter related identity such as 'who am I?' or 'what was I born for?' because genetically midified ones are creation of somebody else. Thus putting hands on human's enormous variety, each one of random individuality will be vanished and people will be in endless questioning of their exsistance.
