Biden’s Top Science Nominee Advocated ‘Preimplantation Genetic Testing’ to Decide Which Human Embryo to Keep By Terence P. Jeffrey for CNS News
GNN Note – As more and more of these satanic globalist are exposed more and more of their demonic agenda gets exposed. Playing god is one of their favorite pass times. /END
Eric Lander, whom President Joe Biden has nominated to be director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, has opposed actually editing the genes of human embryos while repeatedly advocating as an alternative to gene editing the creation of embryos through in vitro fertilization (IVF), using preimplantation diagnostics (PGD) to determine whether an embryo has a genetic defect or disease and then implanting in the mother’s womb only those who do not.
The online Oxford English dictionary defines “eugenics” as the “study of how to arrange reproduction within a human population to increase the occurrence of heritable characteristics regarded as desirable.”

The dictionary provides the following sentence as one example of how the word is used: “In the United States in recent years, interest in eugenics has centered around genetic screening.”
Creating human beings through IVF and then subjecting them to PGD is a form of eugenics that would determine which newly conceived human beings should continue living based on another human being’s judgement of their genetic worthiness.
Huntington’s disease, for example, is one genetic disease that can be detected in an embryo created through IVF and then subjected to PGD before someone decides whether or not to implant that newly conceived human in the mother’s womb. Woody Guthrie, the famous folksinger who wrote the lyrics to “This Land is Your Land,” suffered from Huntington’s disease, according to PBS.
Had he been conceived through IVF and subjected to PGD he might have been denied any life beyond the petri dish in which he was created.
Lander summarized the procedure he has in mind—and that he says many of his colleagues at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard having actually used to choose their offspring–in a January 2020 podcast with Preet Bharara that was posted online under the headline “Playing God (with Eric Lander).”
