In “Ethics and the New Genetics” the Dalai Lama makes the argument that with new technology‚ new ethical concerns are raised. He believes that with the rapid increase of new technology being invented‚ there needs to be a larger focus on the ethical threats that they pose. In “The New Civil Rights” by Kenji Yoshino‚ the Chief Justice Earl Warren Professor of Constitutional Law at New York University‚ a similar argument is made. His argument is that with the rapid increase of groups in a diverse society

Genetically modified foods are beneficial for our society because of the nutrients that may be added to foods and the greater ability to produce these foods. While some people argue that genetic modification is still a new technology that should be researched further‚ others will agree that the benefits definitely outweigh the drawbacks. Society today has all kinds of new technology at its fingertips and should be allowed to use this technology to enhance certain things to better the world. The

Sleep is the single most common form of human behavior and you will spend a third of your life doing it. Sleep is an active state‚ generated with the brain‚ not a mere absence of consciousness (Martin 463). The dictionary defines sleep as "The natural periodic suspension of consciousness during which the powers of the body are restored" (Merriam-Webster). If one is waking up on an average of 400 times per night‚ the chances of complete body restoration are minimal. The Greek word apnea literally
