WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal health regulators will consider this week whether to green light a provocative new fertilization technique that could eventually create babies from the DNA of three people, with the goal of preventing mothers from passing on debilitating genetic diseases to their children.
The Food and Drug Administration has framed its two-day meeting as a "scientific, technologic and clinical" discussion about how to test the approach in humans. But the technique itself raises a number of ethical questions, including whether the government should sanction the creation of genetically modified humans.

Eff that. Seriously. EFF THAT!
Ping.
Oh, this should be interesting.
Ping.
How much do you want to bet that the same people who oppose genetically modified beef and genetically modified corn will LOVE this idea...
Gee, that didn't take long.
Two girls one cup...
Seriously.
Or two guys one cup.
Are the democrats planning to use the federal government to create a new Victim Group?We will end up with stuff like this:
“Genetically modified human” can be translated into “human without known genetic defects” and might even mean “human with improved genes”. Uh, wait . . . make the will eventually mean “human with improved genes”.
It is only a matter of time before a chain such as Dr. Strangelove’s Handi-Dandy Gene Lab open to provide babies with better genes. We will all choose it if we can afford it.
Imagine a child with greater strength, higher IQ, very attractive in body and personality and immune to most any disease.
Still want pot luck at the Meiotic Dance?
If man is to take control of his evolution, perhaps we should decide what we want to become before setting out on that journey. Wrong turns could cause disasters.
Or extinctions.
We failed to seek You in Your time of Mercy and Grace.
We now won't be able to hide from the Father's time of Justice.
I weep with You for what we've become, for our recrucifying You over and over again and for what You must do to fulfill Scripture.
Liberalism is a mental illness, so this proposal is no surprise.
Just one question, for now.
How do they determine who is the MALE parent, so they know who to send the bill to for child support? Eh?
These people intend to destroy the normal parent/child bond that exists in all mammals. They are in complete opposition to normal human nature.
This is why I call liberals nihilistic: because they are nothing, have nothing, believe in nothing, care about nothing, and accomplish nothing positive in their miserable lives.
Bad idea. And totally unnecessary in a world where there are many existing children who don’t have loving parents.
What your pic in post 11 happens daily in a Pooblik Screwl Hive near you. That pocture was taken by another student and shows the hand of the student behind the one in the desk.
Just classroom groping.
Move along.
Sorry, you're mistaken.
It's really a screwed up Photoshop, but it does illustrate the point in a humorous way.
And the FDA regulates it? Crazy!!
And if it turns freaky....no problem....They'll just kill it.
Why don't people just adopt. Such egotists we are.
