If ripple effect is a measure of greatness in scientific discovery
then GEMMOs have a lot going for them and this book dramatically
illustrates the risks associated with advances being made by
researchers to mobilize and control the power of the microorganism
in the world's fight to perfect nature and fmd remedies for its
imperfections. In the field of genetic science it is abundantly
clear that so much more can be achieved through prevention rather
than cure and that the indirect kill, by reason of its logic is a
much more powerful weapon for winning results. Nevertheless the
dilemma facing politicians arises over whether man should tamper
with something which is God-given such as Radioactivity and Genetic
endowment. The Roman Catholic church fmds difficulty in accepting
the proposition that what is God given can be treated as a product
under human control and maybe that is why recently half a century
of genetic research on a strain of bees resistant to a devastating
parasite at the Buckfastleigh Benedictine Monastery has
inexplicably ceased whilst verging on scientific success.(l) The
Anglican Community on the other hand does not see the sacrosanctity
of Radioactivity and Genetic material as a bar to man-manipulation
with appropriate safeguards.
