Is anyway spirituality related to biotechnology? You don’t know the answer but a molecular biologist from Princeton University states that spiritual beliefs plays an important role in deciding whether people accept or reject biotechnology in the field of agriculture or medicine. Though some nations have accepted biotechnology but there are a number of those which have opposed human embryonic medical therapies. Non Christian nations in Asia are supporting human cloning whereas it is being opposed by Philippines which is dominated by Catholics. It seems that non Christians are against agricultural biotechnology whereas stem cell is being opposed by Christians. The general opinion is that making changes to the life form created by god is wrong and one cannot go against the nature. It seems that an unending debate is going on between the people who are for and against the technology and god has been unwillingly made a party to it.
