More from the Associated Press Reports...
WHAT'S AT STAKE
THE ISSUE: The biological co-mingling of animal and human is evolving into exotic and unsettling human-animal hybrids that bring to mind the chimeras of ancient myth.
THE RESEARCH: Scientists have created pigs with human blood, mice with brain cells and rabbit eggs fused with human genetic material.
THE CONCERNS: Critics worry that one of these experiments could create an animal with human traits, especially in work where human and animal brain cells are co-mingled.
THE SOLUTION: The National Academies, in a recent report, said mixing human and animal cells could be vital to advancing medicine. But the Academies recommend that each proposed experiment be first reviewed by an ethics board created at each research institution. It also proposed banning the mixing human embryonic stem cells with monkey and other primate embryos.

Leaving no doubt about my opinion: Humans and Animals should NOT be mixed!  |

S. Koreans pledge human eggs to support scientist news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051206/hl_nm/south_koreans_pledge_human_eggs_support_s_dc_1Tue Dec 6, 1:11 PM ET "The only hope for us is Dr. Hwang. Don't trample on our one shred of hope," a woman whose son suffers from a severe kidney ailment told South Korean broadcaster YTN at the university. The women also pledged to sell her eggs after being pressured by Hwang. What do you think about this? I don't mean to downplay on that woman's sorrow for her son but that doesn't prevent me from declaring that THERE IS ONLY HOPE IN JESUS!! |
