WEIRD postings on this thread. Seems some have an agenda.
Oh, dear God! The fearsome Bengal Squirrel! If I found one of THOSE in my yard, I’d have an instant laundry problem!
It won’t eat nuts...it’ll eat YOUR nuts!
Once the precedent is set for mixing human DNA with mice, does anybody here doubt that some researcher will mix human DNA with an ape?
Something to ponder: is an ape with 10% human DNA legally and morally to be considered an ape or a human with human rights? How about an ape with 90% human DNA? 99%?
If you took an ape egg cell, inserted 100% human DNA, implanted the egg cell in an ape and the resulting infant is born. Is that infant legally a human or an ape?
Do not assume that the above will not happen.
Christine O’Donnell reported on this 2005 news during a 2007 debate on Bill O’Reilly’s “Factor.” Those who are ignorant made fun of Christine O’Donnell’s report, even though Christine was of course correct and the mental midgets who tried to make fun of her were ignorant.
Also, Bill O’Reilly later tried to say that Christine was afraid to come on his program — even though she had already been on his program half a dozen times.
No, that is not what Christine O’Donnell claimed. O’Donnell stated that scientists “ARE COMING UP WITH” — working on, NOT that they had already done it.
The topic of the evening was whether this kind of experimentation should be allowed. THe whole point of the discussion was whether to ban this type of research.
The discussion would make no sense if it had already been achieved.
Christine was clearly saying that scientists were WORKING ON it, which is exactly what the April 2005 MSNBC report says.
IF you want to say that MSNBC and the Associated Press got it wrong, go ahead.
But O’Donnell accurately reported from the MSNBC / Associated Press report
>> does anybody here doubt that some researcher will mix human DNA with an ape?... Do not assume that the above will not happen.
How can I doubt that it could happen? I think I’ve seen a female specimen on the teevee news, actually.
“mice with completely human brains”
Done already, Democrats and RINOs.
dang, and I thought the fox around here were ugly. If you catch two or more of them critters, could I have one to slow down these gun-toten foxes and deer around in my neck of the woods? These varmints (foxes and deer) are starting to shoot at the raccoons and bears within the past few weeks. On second thought ... nevermind ... that thing could eat the raccoons and bears.
Don’t try to change what O’Donnell said.
Here are her EXACT words:
“American scientific companies are cross-breeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains...”
Humans and animals cannot “cross-breed” nor can a mouse be produced with a “fully functioning human brain.”
Mice brain bump.
But hey, it worked for David Gates (of Bread):
If a man could be two placesIf you weren't around in 1971, this won't mean anything to you, and I apologize.
at one time
I'd be with you...
tomorrow and today
beside you all the way.
They are called “reporters”, mice with mice sized human brains.
Yes, scientists CAN cross breed.
You are trying to impose a narrow connotation of “breeding”
CONSIDER: In nuclear science there are BREEDER reactors.
Who is having sex inside a nuclear reactor?
Do you think the uranium atoms are having sex and producing plutonium?
The word “breeding” has multiple meanings and is not as narrow and precise as you would like to make it.
It is you who is trying to change what O’Donnell said.
What O’Donnell said is correct.
And depicted in the "Planet of the Apes" series from the 1970's.
“Particularly worrisome to some scientists are the nightmare scenarios...”
So who are these scientists?
Creating more dem’s to send to the polls...
