This is also a tough subject for me, like others have said it is for them. I believe that life begins at conception so I would have a very hard time deciding whether or not to destroy an embryo even if i knew it might have a disease. I think that the testing to find out if the diseases are there is okay, because it can only prepare you for what may come if you decide to go on with the pregnancy. I would not destroy the embryo even if it had a disease because it is not fair of us to play with what God gives us. A baby is a baby, with or without illness. I would destroy the baby would be if it were going to die upon birth or would risk death to the mother.
Technology on eye color is a whole other story. I do not agree with testing in order to select different physical attributes in a child. Why wouldn't you like your child if it had brown eyes, not blue? Does that really make a parent love a child?

I agree with on on the physical traits aspect. It takes all the excitement away! Its not a puppy that you are buying from a breeder with specific traits it is part of you and its fun to see what traits of yours they will get! For example my friends baby looks just like her husband, but later on she might show more traits from my friend! Its fun to watch the growth!
