As technology evolves we hold the same traditional kinds of moral beliefs we've always held, but scientific advancements add a twist because different factors now apply to the equation in the choices we are needing to make. For some people it ultimately comes down to a question of whether or not we should take the technical route simply because we can. The question of whether or not we should is the real question that begs asking; when advancements make something an option does this mean we should actually do it?Any kind of technical or scientific advancement will impact the decisions we are faced with making as either individual or collective societies across the globe. These choices, which include using scientific progress, are eventually incorporated into cultural and social norms and the varying legal systems residing in different nations. I wouldn't go as far to say that scientific advancement inherently changes our values or throws our moral compasses off course, but it does add several shades of gray into the decisions we are faced with on a daily basis.
