3 parent babies - Yay or Nay?
The United Kingdom took a step Friday toward being the first country in the world to allow a pioneering in vitro fertilization technique using DNA from three people that could prevent mitochondrial diseases.
The new embryo will contain nuclear DNA from the intended father and mother, as well as healthy mitochondrial DNA from the donor embryo -- effectively creating a "three-parent" baby.
This has opened the door to the creation of "designer babies."
Yay!!!

Gay marriage causes gay people to stop pretending they are straight and marry people of the opposite sex. So, the gay people who wouldn't normally have kids were having kids that they wouldn't normally have to hide their gay lifestyle. With 3 parent babies, people who wouldn't normally have kids are having kids. Side: Wait..., what? Nay!!!
