If it were engineered, I don't believe we would be able to tell by a made-in-China tag, and I don't think that gene therapy's viral editing proteins necessarily leave clear evidence behind in the genome, unless I am mistaken in my recollection of my acid-washed education in molecular biology.

This is to say, the only 'evidence of human interference in the genome' would be by counterintelligence, right? Our mechanisms don't leave framing codons that we can't extract or anything like that, right?

any insight or just the gut rxn? u nerd [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I'm trying to figure out what it is about your writing I can't tolerate. Bad writing is like pornography, you know it when you see it, but damned if I can isolate any problems to give you pointers on how to pretend to communicate like a normal human being. I'm gonna just say convoluted, pretentious drivel that needs some editing to be readable, which is a shame because it's an interesting post.
