Artificial human life could soon be grown from scratch in the lab, after scientists successfully created a mammal embryo using only stem cells.
Cambridge University mixed two kinds of mouse stem cells and placed them on a 3D scaffold. After four days of growth in a tank of chemicals designed to mimic conditions inside the womb, the cells formed the structure of a living mouse embryo.
The breakthrough has been described as a masterpiece in bioengineering, which could eventually allow scientists to grow artificial human embryos in the lab without the need for a sperm or an egg.

“Artificial human life”
If it’s artificial, it’s not human life. A very simple statement that should be clear to everyone.

25
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator who is forever praised. Amen.

How's that work out again?

“From scratch” my foot.
Use mud instead of stem cells.
And you have to create your own mud.

If it has human genetics it is still a human being.

I don’t see the advantage here. Only a long and evil path to the devil’s workshop.

They started with a stem cell. Didn’t create anything.

It’s not artificial.
Did they create the DNA, base pair by base pair? No.
Did they create the embryonic cell from lab chemicals? No.
They took pre-existing life and repurposed it.

Something tells me that a human ovum MUST be involved somewhere in the process for this thing to even approach viability.

Learning to interact with a member of the opposite sex in the context of a lifetime of marriage seems to be a behavioral life skill very few are being taught these days.

It’s already been done. We have artificial intelligence. Liberals.
