Trekosophy s03e02: Genetic Manipulation, part 2: Side Effects

March 02, 2014

Continuing our discussion from last season, the Trekosophers talk about the various side effects of genetic manipulation.  More specifically, the mutants from the Star Trek: Deep Space 9 episodes “Statistical Probabilities” and “Chrysalis” are explored.  Is it worth being genetically enhanced if the risk of such side effects are so great?  Were the mutants correct about surrendering to the Dominion to save more lives?  Does it help them have better singing skills?  That’s a stupid question.
