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.

Anyway my friend. Go to Church and buy a Bible. That’s all.

“They are very close to creating human beings and I don’t think God will allow this.”

Hey, my wife and I created two of them. ;)

But, in terms of your comment, no. We are not close to creating human beings.

Nor life.

Anything done scientifically only piggy-backs on God’s creation.

But, in terms of your comment, no. We are not close to creating human beings.

Foolish comment denies facts. They will not have a spirit but they will have life maybe silicon based instead of carbon, or hybrids of either or both.

Lol.
