Comment on what do you think about biocomputing?
unmagical@lemmy.ml 3 hours agoI encourage you to learn more about the subject and close some of your knowledge gaps. You still may not agree with myself on the matter, but you’ll hopefully be able to elucidate your concerns more concretely. As it stands now, however, “idk” and “it rubs me the wrong way” seem like a fear of the unknown which is an insecure basis upon which to construct a belief system or guide your principals.
I’m curious which greater religion you espouse. I’d argue that virtually any human action is one of alerting, and while predation, gathering, locomotion, and vocalization could be ascribed to alter in a manner consistent with a god given design, every action from cooking onward directly alters “creation” in a manner not inherent to our biology. That is to say, once we adopted tools and fire we ascended above the actions of other animals.

i follow islam,specifically quran alone. i agree i do fear biocomputing bec it seems like a horror. i am however open to learn more about it. i will do research about it. but if you have any points to present to me im willing to listen even if i didnt agree.

I must admit, I know less of Islam than I do of Judaism or Christianity (being an agnostic atheist former nondenominational protestant christian myself); though I can understand coming to the conclusion that bioengineering is one of the moral tests in a world where humans are allowed to be but lack a specific dominion or subjugation over.
Unfortunately, I don’t have concrete resources for you at this time, as my understanding is borne of years of passive interest rather than specific study.
Do you believe that your moral opposition to this field of study should forcibly be respected by all people or that is a personal guidance you alone must follow?

i don’t believe in force ,i think i should adovcate against it(in my current view of biocomputing that may change or not not sure now). so i should be against it,advice others to not use it and see it as moral failure etc and attempt to not use it myself and leave or minize use of services doing it.

That is fair.
