I can see a future where heredity and genetic predisposition will be used against people more and more. It isn't pretty.

People already do that to each other about inherited wealth or property; my mother and her sister haven't spoken to each other in years, due to a fight started over my grandmother's house-- which neither now owns, and which has probably been torn down by its new owners for all we know. But the grudge and its scars live on.
