Genetic engineering can, indeed solve many health and ecological issues such as preventing diseases involved in transcription, etc. and increasing crop yield. Whether or not it's the hope of the future is unique to each person.

My opinion is that it is messing with things that we don't understand.
Nobody really knows how life works, or how procreation really takes place.
By messing around we are destroying natural evolution, and creating potential situations for the spread of incurable disease.
Any of the pros can be examined, and the question 'Why?' asked.
There is almost always a logical answer.
Why do we need more food? Because the nutrition of present food has been destroyed by the fore-runner of genetic engineering - unnatural farming in order to make more profit.
Almost always there is an answer which ends up with - to make more profit.
Our current society is run on the idea that profit is essential. If we examined all these things down to the root we would see that society is definitely headed in the wrong direction, and genetic engineering is a part of that.
It's of no long term benefit to the human race.

yes it is. If stem cell research get out of politics, it will make break through.
Also, gene coding will be hot in future.
Overall, I think genetics and bioinformatics(what people call characterizing genes) will be major eye openers.
