Knowledge of the human genome will revolutionize human relations, our society, and even our religions over time. Human technical advances have always altered both cultural and religious experience and doctrine. Look at what the discovery of a genuine alphabet did for the Hebrews. It changed their religion and society completely in a matter of a few years. They literally redefined themselves, distinguished themselves from all of the cultures surrounding them by their unique characteristic of literacy.
Religions do a bad job of holding up technical progress.
Religions do, however, offer a lens through which we can examine the implications of the technologies we create, and their impact on human society. It's a little late in the game to be worrying about the moral and ideological consequences of deciphering the human genome. They've been working on it for years and people are just now reacting. Genetic Scientists avoid the issue of the potential abuse of the new technology. Many of the pioneers of atomic power regretted their inability to foresee the misuse of nuclear technology.
