Nanotech Ethics                              
"Right and Wrong are always Factors"
"Wisdom is the principal thing"                        
 "We do not have the right to destroy God's world"



Driven by an insatiable desire for financial gain and an unbridled determination to know, man speeds toward a rendervous with God.  Such an intersection of paths is not man's intended destination but the same is in God's eternal plans.  Man is seeking knowledge for himself, while God seeks to have man know Him (God).  Thus, as the newly-acquired abilities of man are married to new technologies, man's potential to "reach beyond" increases.   Having (in many cases) discarded any serious thought about (or faith in) God, the learned move "forward" with full intent to find and identify "whatever is 'out there'".

What is "out there"?  Whatever God put out there, that's what's out there.  God put it exactly where He wanted it to be.  If man is determined to take it upon himself to "invade" the realm of space, he would be wise to ask God first. Asking is a necessary component of ethics.  Seeking God's will in the realm of space and science (knowledge) is a critical "must do".  Otherwise, the "rendervous" with God will be less than optimal.

The use of nanotechnology must be tempered with the demands of God.  We have a perfect guidebook from which we may seek the will and mind of God.  That book is the Holy Bible.  In it will also be found the principles needed to develop a system of ethics for the practitioners of nanotechnology.  Let's find that book and heed its teachings.
