Didn't you hear? The Raelians have already been there and done that.

I think some things should not be tampered with, even if theoretically possible.

The methods employed, while on a micro-cellular level, are very crude, not to far removed from Mengele’s methods.

"“I get enquiries every day. To date, we have had over 100 enquiries and every enquiry is serious”, he told the Independent. "

So, he's only been around for 100 days?

[Porterville]

cool, as long as we can build an army to kill enemies like a mix of Star Wars and Universal Soldier

[reaganaut]

Oh, gee. Another Doctor who thinks he is God. Why am I not surprised.

"He said he has also produced cloned embryos of three dead people, including a 10-year-old girl called Cady who died in a car crash in the US. The child's blood cells were frozen and sent to Zavos." Reminds me of H.P Lovecraft's Reanimator. Aside from that, I'm simply at a loss for words.....

[JoJo Gunn]

Gawd, ain't she perty!

 

[freekitty]

I agree.

[Darwin Fish]

Wonder what the church folks think about the dude’s soul?

Does he/she have one?

If life begins at conception, between a sperm and egg, and this did not happen, is it life?

[TSgt]

This is her boy-toy:


The Bee Gee's called and they want their wardrobe back!

50,000 cloned Obamas on the way?

[Vaquero]

genetically engineered superman

Kahnnnnnnnnnnn

[shadeaud]

First Obammma says it's ok to kill newly born babies and now it will be ok to clone people like Garafola

What people fail to realize is that this leads the way to designer humans cloned for spare parts.

(And why bother protesting abortion when designer children are so much...better...than natural ones anyway?)

I feel a vanity coming on about this...

NO cheers, unfortunately.

A United States-based fertility doctor claimed to have cloned 14 human embryos and transferred 11 of them into the wombs of four women.

Why not put 9 of them into the womb of one woman? Then Octomom would be put to shame, someone would outdo her, 9 babies, and they are clones!

“What people fail to realize is that this leads the way to designer humans cloned for spare parts.”

Of course you will clone the parts you need, less chance on biological rejection.

Are you arguing that not all twins have a soul? Or are you just making an atheist argument against souls altogether?

Monozygotic twins, frequently referred to as identical twins, occur when a single egg is fertilized to form one zygote (monozygotic) which then divides into two separate embryos. The division of the developing zygote into 2 embryos occurs within 8 days of fertilization 99% of the time.

How about the things they are doing in Europe, like working with human-animal hybrids so they can claim that their scientific experiments are “ethical” (non-human subjects).
Create deliberate SUB-humans (part human but not deserving of rights).

Sick culture.
