Info

• Religion and Transgenic Ethics (rest) • Muslim ethics are guided by the Qur’an and hadith. -The controlling concept is “tawhid” concept or the absolute unity of God. - whatever is not forbidden by God is allowed within the boundaries of the Qur’an, - animals may be used for the benefit of mankind. Islam welcomes genetic engineering as it does all new discoveries that help ease the suffering of humanity.
Transgenesis : • Public Acceptability Significant lack of public support for animal transgenesis : •Nearly 50% of Europeans might not allow production and use of certain forms of transgenic animals. •Some believe, however, that scientists, as guardians of scientific knowledge, possess the only correct view, while the public are ill-informed or misled. •Others argue that considerations within the scientific community are considerably influenced by self-interest and professional loyalties. Some argue that the application of transgenic technologies is incompatible with the Three Rs concept. •Other key ethical concepts about which the general public and scientists often disagree are "naturalness", "integrity", and "intrinsic/inherent value"
