Furthermore, this type of study is only the first in figuring out ways one can mitigate the effects of genetics. Sure, infanticide is the scariest fringe case, but I think what can be equally scary is that perhaps decisions about what you are allowed to do could be determined by genetic screening. So, for example, if you're genetic screening shows you are predisposed to pedophilia or something, then certain career paths could become shut down to you. I dont think that we are headed for a Gattaca-type world (and god forbid Uma Therman ever gets accepted into a space program), but to avert this, we should probably take evasive action sooner rather than later.
