... and how to alter it to correct incorrect dna sequences.

Well : at least we're smart enough to not let unscrupulous, tunnel-visioned, profit-worshiping corporations in charge of that, eh ?

You don't seem to get that there is also a difference between taking an aspirin and altering your dna.

There is also a difference between being given something that may alter your dna, not sure that has been proven, and pledging allegiance to the antichrist.

ETA:

When they clone you, which one is created in God's image?

According to your logic, both, if the dna is unaltered.

Ok, fine. I guess we have to get technical, since you take everything as literal as possible.

RNA is the other half of the equation when it comes to coding genes, DNA being the first.

You are injecting something into your body which alters the way your RNA encodes your genes. Hence the reason I said "gene therapy" the first time.

Long story short, you are no longer in God's image. And you let man do that you.

And no, the clone man created is not in God's image.

But don't worry, the apocalypse isn't coming in your life time. You don't really want Jesus to return do you? You know, because the apocalypse has to happen before Jesus comes back...

Actually they encode proteins and not your genes.

ETA: Link: Messenger RNA (mRNA)

That doesn't make any sense, my dna is different than yours so does that mean one of us is not in god's image?

And no, the clone man created is not in God's image.

See above.

I'm an atheist, so...

... exaggerating to make a point.

A teaching technique also used by Jesus ("camel through the eye of a needle")
I think you will find it makes the point easier to remember.

P.S. Amendment. "More difficult to forget".
