Science is soaring to new heights and their appears to be no limit to what they’ll come up with next. Human- animal cross-breeds are now being developed in hopes of growing limbs and organs that could be used to save a persons life.
Although none of these cross-breed embryos have been brought to term, yet, it is only a matter of time before we see a striking resemblance between ourselves and pigs.
One obvious concern lies within the argument of these animals developing human-like intelligence. If we are injecting an animal with human DNA, shouldn’t we expect a drastic change in the animals biology?
The MIT Technology Review had a lot to say about the subject on the next page.
Just leave things to humans and this is what happens!
IS THIS WHAT MUSLIMS HIDE BEHIND BURKAS

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. They are trying to play God, and are going to pay a heavy price.
Looks like the creatures on “Tank Girl”
This breaks my heart. This is wrong
Sick.
This is horrible!!! It is against God!
The picture is of a sculpture by a woman that is known for her man/ dog and other unusual depictions. If you go to the looney side of YouTube you will find dozens upon dozens of f**e videos that show her work and claim it is real.
I am not saying that there are not people doing research lije this, but I HIGHLY doubt there is a proverbial mad scientist out there in a clandestine lab trying to make monsters. More likely they are looking to cure disease.
Cloning was first brought to the public’s attention in the early 70’s, but the first mammalian clone, Dolly the sheep, did not come about until over a decade later, and was preceded by many failures. Genetic manipulation, particularly on higher animals, is vastly difficult. Most “chimeras” do not develop and die in an early fetal stage.
We are a long way of from “playing God,” and might never do it. We have too much propensity to kill each other first.
