While researchers stress that they have not created life, the breakthrough raises important questions about what this could mean for the future—and whether it should be done at all. As technology continues to outstrip our ethics, from AI to biomedical engineering, we are reminded that our greatest need is not simply scientific advancement but the wisdom only our all-knowing, all-loving Lord can provide.
