Human babies 'grown in lab' By Oliver Stallwood, Metro 5 May 2005 Human eggs which could grow into embryos have been created in a laboratory for the first time, scientists announced yesterday.
They were created by scraping stem cells off the surface of ovaries and exposing them to a chemical which stimulated growth.
The breakthrough suggests limitless supplies of eggs could be grown, solving the problem of the acute shortage of donor eggs for infertile women wanting IVF treatment.

Is this the next step in scientific/medical evolution or the work of the Devil?

- What kind of question is that?
- Do you really believe that this could be "the Devil?"
- If it is "the Devil," what will you do about it?
- How are you going to find out if it is "the Devil?"
- Do you think someone here is able to answer that question?

The title should be "human eggs 'grown in lab,'" not "human babies 'grown in lab.'"

Hi, I'm the devil....
You can just call me 'Old Nick'. Nope, I didn't come up with the process, and I'm not really a geneticist--well, not since the whole 'Nephilim' thing kinda 'went south' LOL!
But, this kinda thing does give me a smile--I'll make sure those mad doctors get their reward.
You can be your own creator and savior--feel the power.

The lesbians will be so excited. I wonder if health insurance will be forced to pay for this?
