What do christians feel about the use of nanotechnology for medical purposes?

Such as having little nanobots in our bloodstream to fight cancer, viruses, cure neurological disorders, mend broken bones and sinews, skin conditions, etc.

What do christians feel about the use of nanotechnology for medical purposes?
In principle, I'm fine with it. Practically speaking, given that the first law of programming is "there's always another bug", I'm a little uneasy with it, but I'm willing to be convinced.





Why would Christians have a different perspective from anyone else?
Reply:No problem whatsoever. However, I do think that Science shouldn't just ask the question "Can we do it?" I think a more important question is "Should we do it?" But with nanotechnology, I don't have any moral dilemmas as yet.
Reply:Who cares about their opinion?
Reply:I think it is wonderful that God has allowed men to develop the technology. I hope it is successful.
Reply:I'm sure the feelings would be that of the rest of the population. Some would embrace it as a new means of healthcare, and others would be wary of having something artificial in their system. I know you're searching for ways to bash Christians...but you really seem to be off the mark today. Other days I actually find your viewpoint quite interesting and usually non-bigoted...today you're just boring.
Reply:personally , I don't have a problem with it as a Christian; when it is going to be your time to go ; no one can take your place nor mine; it isn't like vanity for plastic surgery or abortion ; if it works then it was meant to be ; if it doesn't, your time is going to be your time; God put everything here on earth; aspirin , etc ; most of the cures come from nature ; look at medicine, vitamins etc
Reply:Sounds good to me. It's not much different than replacing hips with artificial bones, or using synthetic medicine to treat diseases.
Reply:I think it will be wonderful. I am just curious as to why you think Christians are so backward? Is it occurring to you that you may have a faulty view of what it is to be a Christian? Did you know that there are Christian scientists and doctors and philosophers..We don't all where calico and hide in a shed.
Reply:Are Christians different from the rest of the world?
