Why haven't we used genetic engineering to evolve humanity

Man just shh, people are trying hard to do that.. like really hard. Just participate how you can and stop complaining.

>to evolve humanity
evolution is *FROM* a prior form, not *TO* a posterior form
Lrn2evolution fgt pls

I don't care about semantics I just want humans to be replaced by something better, also I'll use words however the fuck I please you pedantic little pre-Madonna.

It's not as straightforward as you make it sound.

You want a third impact?

No I value independence from other lifeforms, but I wouldn't mind being enslaved/replaced by angels though, as long as they were equal or superior to humans in regards to intelligence.

Yes, Mr Gendo Ikari, let the human instrumentality project begin.

WHY LIVE?

I don't want to be replaced, you little spergy autist.

You can still have genetically-engineered God-tissues grafted into your body. Unfortunately remnants of your inferior genome will remain, but every little bit helps, right?

Lol, we are far from fully understand cells and DNAs. Most of the things are just hard theories.

To be able to build complex structures like DNA is the same as being able to create nano machines to do the job. So no, we have serious technical issues in the nano universe right now.

So i can be a demi god? Ill take it

become a geneticist

Because this big fancy "genetic engineering" title translates to "I'm going to sit in a lab running biochemical assays all day till I determine I mutated the protein how I want it" to anybody not associated with pop-sci Biochem.

It's not fun and not nearly as applied as you think it is, you pop-sci douchebag. You aren't getting your laser eyes or extremely high intelligence any time soon.
