    Stem cell research (OP)


    Salaams,

    From Googling online is would seem that this topic is still in debate amongst the ulema so I wanted to just ask for your opinions and growing organs in the lab. Are you for or against it?

    So a child needs a heart transplant and he can just get one created in the lab for him from stem cells.

    Now for a bit of fantasy although not too far in the future, neuroprosthetics. Implanting computer chips in our brains to make them more powerful. Human memory isn't fantastic, walk into a room and spend 30 seconds looking at everything and then walk out of the room and try to remember where everything was placed. It's pretty difficult. Imagine being able to commit those memories to a chip in your brain and recall them at any given time? Sounds like sci-fi at the moment but it's the future

    Thoughts? Haram, halal, ethically wrong etc.

    This is a very inaccurate characterisation of Richard Dawkins' views on immortality, which you can see him talking about here:

    I am sorry and you are absolutely right. I appreciate the correction.
    I was thinking of Ray Kurwzweil. The singularists.
