The modifications to the human genome currently being studied and experimented with will eventually change human nature in the following ways. As technology make it possible to control the human genome and form a person into an ideal type, the way people feel toward blood relationships will change. Now people have their own family consciousness because there is a strong genetic connection between themselves. However, if people can control the genome inside themselves or others, they will lose their own natural genome and special connection with their relatives.
You point out something I've never considered before, the effects of intentional design of people on family relationships. Would someone who is designed have more in common with other humans that are the same "model," like this year's model of a computer or car, than with the family that orders them from the baby designing company?
