    Yes, science have the power to play the role of a creator in our society because the creation speaks out upon the glory of the creator, which means science is an avenue for worship. Scientists are less likely to believe in god and have no spiritual value in pursuing a career in science. It depends on what limits takes the ability of a man to create life by artificial. Human intelligence can adapt to different natural resources. Different master tools give in an opportunity to increase experiences and human tools.

    Yes, in our society science does have the power to play God (creator). I do believe that their should be a limit on the ablitiy to create life by articfical means because things can get messy and humans can mess up and potentially hurt the new life that they created. It is not natural to have science interfer with creating life.

    Scientists do not play a role in our creator. They do not because scientists have nothing to do with our creations and how humans arrived on earth. I believe that there should be a limit to ability a man can possess in regards to creating life. I believe this because if scientists start making discoveries they will try and prove a point and everyone will start to believe them. they can not say who put us here and how everything in this world works and why.

    Science does have the power to play the role of a creator in our society because it tries to creates what isn’t normally created in the first place and goes to replace what is already made. Yes there should be a limit because what is meant to be created will be created eventually but just not in the time where people think that it should be.

    Science does have the power to play a role of a creator because scientist are creating something so that makes them the creator and whatever they want to make is their creation. There should be no limit because God is not the only being that can be a creator scientist can make a person as a human and make them smarter.

    I believe that science does the power to become our creators but its whether or not they know how to control that power that will make a difference in the world. There should be a limit to the abilities man has because some could use the creation of life as a negative solution to the problems they believe are essential or it could have a positive solution, giving hope and reassurance to the people in the world that hope for a second chance at life.

    Yes, science does have the power to play god, but they do not deserve and should not be allowed to do it if it is harmful to any fetus or any organisms. There should be a limit to where man can create life by artificial means. For example they should be allowed to create GMO foods because it it not harmful and is the same product as it is naturally. This product is engineered to be just like the original.I think the line should be crossed with embryos. For instance if a couple is not able to reproduce, surrogates do not work, adoption, and etc; the baby should be made artificially if it is the last option if it comes down to it.

    Science has the power has the power to play a role of a creator in our society because science is used to produce new material and the creator (God) is used to make a happening for anyone in the world but also to make sure that everyone follows the same path as himself the creator. There should be a limit to the ability a man that can possess in regards to creating life by artificial means because there can be a positive outcome towards the process such as cloning. Cloning can help save lives and keep the population in our society stronger.

    Yes Science does have the power to play a role as creator in our society because you can create something and you will be the creator. But eventually it comes to a point where science has to stop playing a role as an creator. There should be a limit a man can possess in regards to creating life because making (gmo) is harmless and not hurting anybody. But once they start actually bringing embryos into this it's crossing the line hurting other people.

    Yes, I do believe science has the power to play the role as creator in our society. Scientists are always creating new things as we all develop on this earth. I do think Scientists shouldn’t cross certain boundaries such as trying to create human life. Humans are the most complex creatures on this planet. Scientists haven’t even fully discovered how the human brain works entirely so, I feel some things especially when it comes to our species is best left unknown due to a higher power.

    Yes, Science does have the power to play creator in our society. Scientist have already successfully cloned animals and one day they hope to clone a human being. I believe that morally we are taught ,that only God can create life. He is a divine being, and gives his creations meaning and purpose. But as you all know their is always two sides to every story, while we are taught that no one but God has the power to create, I believe that scientist should not have a limit to create life by artificial means. They should be allowed to create life in order to help cure illness, and diseases . I believe that we all are our abilities from a higher being, scientist are given the gift to help discover, and create things that will benefit human beings.

  17. I strongly believe that science does not have the power to play the role as creator in our society. This is because, the way we was made can’t be changed, mainly because scientists did not bring humans into the world. The power of man should have a limit, because science is always improving, and people are taking full advantage of it. This leads to a negative impact on our society, because the way we were made shouldn’t be changed.

    Science shouldn’t have a powerful role of a creator (God) within our society. When scientists get involved with making new creations they start to make an unbalanced within the environment of the world. This world is has a over population and we can’t have they change the way the world works. There should be a limit to be ability for man kind to stay a creation. Society should be left alone and be the way it should be. Man kind needs to let the environment do it’s work and not change it.

    Science shouldnt play god in society but it doesn't not mean that we shouldn't use science at all. We based our entire ecistances off of science. I honestly think there shouldnt be a limit because without science we wouldnt find the cure for so many things. Although frankistine believes his monster "bob" was his science fauiliar it was just do to the fact that he completed his purpose.

    Science does not have the power to play the role of the creator because science did not originally create everything we have in this world. Science did not create humans or animals. Science is usually known for altering something that is already made or making something better but that does not mean they created it. Their should be a limit because humans have not really figured how science work fully. We are always discovering may new things every day. Science can also harm or help the environment and us.

    Scientists play a huge role on how our future can turn out. They have the ability to clone living things and make things that can change the outcome of the world. It is also scary how they can create diseases that are uncurble and they don’t have limits to what they can do.

    Science plays a major role on the future. Science can be a creator, science is used to make things turn into something bigger. Science will never be the creator but it can create multiple incredible and different things. However there should be a limit in creating life. Science could never actually create a human/life, that is impossible. There are big limits that stop things like this. Artificial means can only go so far but not in creating life.

    Science plays a role as a creator in our society because many scientists are always finding new ways creating new experiments. It’s because of the new technology many are able to do create and do so much more with the new technology. Then again it’s wrong to mess with Mother Nature because there will be consequences.

    I believe that the scientists of today definitely do have the power to become our creators. For them, it is quite easy to clone embryos, which would form into a living being under the correct care. I dont believe there should be a limit because eventually we would need their smarts to continue as beings on this planet. According to "Creator vs. Creation in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein", the Koreans are cloning embryos, so they are doing this as we speak.

    I believe science should have the right to play “god” because in a way science always interferes with religion and such. When people get really sick the hospital does everything in their will power to save them from death. Some religions may argue that they have no right to do so. That it’s god’s plan if he survives or not. There should be a limit though because we shouldn’t really have that kind of power to make artificial life because it isn’t natural or god like and could cause issues.

    Science does certainly have the power to play the role of a god or creator in our society today. As there are advances in science being made, the potential for humanity to create artificial life through scientific means rises. If we can create life artificially and it’s shown to benefit us, then we shouldn’t limit our abilities.

    Science currently possesses the power to play the role of a creator (God) in our society. Scientists have and still are manipulating genes and developing new organisms. “Biologists in Oregon have reported using cloning to produce a monkey embryo and extract stem cells” Teaching Frankenstein with the N.Y times by John Tierney. In other words scientist are creating life through cloning which has never been done before. However, there should be a limit to artificially creating life because it can cause a world wide problem. For example the cloning of monkey embryos could damage the ecosystem as other non native species have when they are introduced to a new ecosystem.

    Currently science does not have the power to play the role of God as a creator in our society. Although science is progressing it is still based on curiosity and answering the questions that are unanswered.Althoght science has great potential it still does not have the power to creat something out of nothing. I feel having the ability to creat life artificially should be very limited because it could easily turn into something that can have a lot of negative effects. As of now there really aren’t that many answers to the topic of creating life, this is why scientists are still experimenting. Just the thought of man being able to creat life artificially is a slippery slope because Of how much power it could give someone.

    In my opinion, science completely has the power to play the role of a creator in today’s society. To elaborate scientists attempts to create the unknown and new things that are abnormal. This leads to replace what is already created. There should be a limit because what is meant to be created will be in time, forcing the evolution of society will just lead to failure and the entire world will suffer cause of it.

    Should scientist play "God" or have the power to play "God" I believe they do have the power to make a creation like us maybe not just yet but we will soon have that ability do I believe we should? No because it can cause many problems and who knows what would happen although it would be interesting. There should be limits because we would want to use our creations to be strong and have ability's that we humans dont have and will abuse them and problem make them as slaves or use them for war because if they were to die we can just make more and that will be abusing the power and he purpose of it and it will destroy this world.

    I believe science has the ability to play the role of creator as far as plantations and other thing relating to food. The reason I believe that is because now days we have very advanced technology that we can experiment with different things and than do that’s best for society and not harmful. However science shouldn’t be allowed to create human because it can ruin the whole human race if something goes wrong. Also we are not god so we can’t fix things if they go wrong. And people wouldn’t treat a human life like a gift if becomes so easily to create someone

    I believe that the scientists do have the power/right to become our creator because science has advanced a lot and now we know more about the human race. I think scientist have the knowledge needed to create humans and they should use it because a living being can thrive under the correct care. That creation could be the answer to cancer or some other incurable disease. I believe there should be a limit because although we can do a lot of good with creating clones there's always a negative and I think there should be rules before it gets out of hand.

There should be a limit into creating creatures because there could always be problems that come along sometime people dont realize what they are doing and there creations become to powerful and they become stronger than what they originally thought.

    Yes, science does have the power to play the role of a creator in our society. Scientist are constantly coming up with new ideas and creations everyday. For example, without computer science, we would not have all these varieties of phones and technology. Now a days it's rare to see someone without a smart phone. Technology has taken over our lives completely. There should be a limit when creating artificial life because you never really know how the creation might turn out, just like in frankenstein.
