I am for it, and do so regularly. For example:

manipulating matter on the molecular level:
I breath in O2 molecules and ruthlessly crush them together with other elements to make new molecules during cellular respiration.
I digest food, heedlessly breaking up complex molecules into simpler molecules.
I heat things in microwaves, causing countless chemical changes.
I utilize an internal combustion engine in my automobile.

manipulating matter on a higher than molecular level
I move objects regularly every day.

And what are your reasons why you would be for or against it? Thanks.
I enjoy being alive.

Also, pretty much every one of my business and leisure activities requires the manipulation of matter.



...I imagine you're getting at something a lot more specific than "manipulation of matter." Spit it out, already.
