While talking on pro life issues to a group of experts, Pope Benedict XVI lashed out at genetic engineering and designer babies. Speaking to the group he expressed his views on the issue and condemned in vitro fertilization and diagnostic tests undertaken for the purpose of abortion.

Pope stated in his speech:

In developed countries, there is a growing interest for the most sophisticated biotechnological research to introduce subtle and extensive eugenics methods in the obsessive search for the perfect child.

He was opposed to the methods such as artificial insemination for deciding on the selection of the child and he stated that the right to life was being attacked in countries world over and as a result euthanasia was being promoted. I would probably agree with him on certain issues that we are playing with Mother Nature and this will certainly bring harm to the mankind.
