If there came a day where we could rewrite human DNA..
I think this was covered in a star trek episode. If we could take away the craving for calorie dense foods, alter the need for attention, reduce sex drive etc should we do it? And what would we tailor the human toward if not wilderness survival (what humans evolved to do, hunt and gather) and reproduction. Additionally, would it make life less interesting and worth living?
