Part human, part pig embryos have been successfully created by scientists for the first time.
The embryos, that were grown inside a sow, contained a 'low' amount of human tissue.
But it is hoped one day this technique will allow whole organs in the pig to be grown of human cells, to tackle the increasing shortage of organs for transplants. The chimera, or human-animal hybrid, was created by injecting human stem cells into pig embryos and then implanting them in a sow.
The human stem cells grew and formed part of the tissue of the pig embryos, although they did not become piglets as they were removed at 28 days.
The amount of human tissue that grew in the pig embryos was low, researchers said.

Am I crazy, or is there something singularly creepy and wrong with this?
Donna Douglas was so ugly!
So they could create killing machines at some point. They could cross a predator like a lion or wolf and a human. Perhaps the technology isn’t far enough along to make these hybrids very functional but it will be. When that happens, life becomes more complicated but it always does.
Feh!
As soon as I saw the title, I gave it an over/under of 15 posts before somebody mentioned Rosie O’Donnell. It got to number 41 before you posted. Thank you, now I can move on to other threads!
Are they talking about Rosie O’Donnell again?
Of all the Doctor Who episodes to predict the future, it HAD to be Daleks in Manhattan.
Having said that, the headline is a little sensationalist. How much DNA-altering is there?
They are playing God.
This is the best verse the best verse that I can think of.
Jasher 4:18: “And their judges and rulers went to the daughters of men and took their wives by force from their husbands according to their choice, and the sons of men in those days took from the cattle of the earth, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and taught the mixture of animals of one species with the other, in order therewith to provoke the Lord; and God saw the whole earth and it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its ways upon earth, all men and all animals.”
The serpent bribed Even by the promise that she will be like God.
Genesis 3: 1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, Did God really say, You must not eat from any tree in the garden?
2 The woman said to the serpent, We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.
4 You will not certainly die, the serpent said to the woman. 5 For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.re pl3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made.

another example is the Tower of Babel. Nimrod was trying to raise himself above God.
3 They said to each other, Come, lets make bricks and bake them thoroughly. They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. 4 Then they said, Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.
Mary Shelly, please call your office.
Don’t have a cow, man.
Um....we already have Rosie ODonnell
Surprised it took to post #41 to see a Rosie reference....
Someone tell me again how vile Hitler and the Nazis were.
wait, if this is the first, what’s Rosie O’Donnell then?
Seriously this is all kinds of wrong.
Beg your pardon? you asked for Biblical support, and I gave it to you. I was trying to share the Bible with you out of friendship. I take it that you are an extremely rude person.
Ice up, son.
What are blabbing about? You can’t handle God’s word, or someone simply answering a question. Find God, you will find peace with the anger in you.
kinda judgmental dude?
get over yourself.
don’t have a cow.
One “word”: algore
You are the one picking a fight. You are the one who is being obnoxious. You are the one being rude. Now go away with yoru miserable condition. Stay away from weapons.
I was just sharing the word with someone who asked. If you do not want to read my thoughts about another Freepers question, then just move along.
