Is this cutting edge science or the scariest thing you have heard from medical research science since cloning?
This is nothing that hasn't been done already years ago. I would hardly call the clones hybrids in fact. What they do is strip the nucleus out of an animals egg cell and insert a human nucleus. This replaces all of the DNA. However there is still some RNA left in the cell which isn't in the nuclues. RNA has a lot of biological functions especially in protein synthesis, but isn't really a big deal genetically.
Reply:Some people will say that I'm backwards...but I dont believe we should be combining our genetic code (on any level) with that of other species. I don't believe that any good can come out of "playing God" so to speak.
Reply:I think its good, it'll help treat or find ways to treat diseases which are currently a big problem in the world today. All the people that are against it wont refuse the treatment found by the research if they are ill.





I know a lot of people feel strongly on the subject but embryos are not 'alive' (technically they are but meh) they cant feel anything they are just cells.





I can see it helping a lot of people and therefore its a good thing, people think things like this means well be growing limbs and things, it doesn't. It just means some DNA will be combined to make stem cells which are one of the most versatile things used in science/medicine today.





And I'm sure your God wouldn't be so unhappy about you 'playing' at his job, you're saving lives which he doesn't seem to be that fussed about. And don't give me that rubbish about everyones life being planned before they are born, wheres the fairness in a baby dying at 3 months old of a disease which research liek this could help to prevent/treat/cure.
Reply:I don't see what is so creepy about it. Believe me, the scientists will gradually go further as we accept these things more.
Reply:creepy
Reply:It depends on human beings how they use the knowledge obtained from such research.so alongside such scientific research, we should develope us spiritually as well, so as to begood human beings




















it depends on the human
