Hoo Boy! I’m sitting this one out for a min and just watch the reaction :)

1st: Whaaaaat??

2nd: Did anyone else think “FMA?!” when they read the title?

[LegendHasIt]

Well, I’m all for it if they all turn out like Max from Dark Angel (Jessica Alba TV series of a few years ago).

She had feline DNA spliced into her and turned out to be just excellent.

Some of the other ‘chimeras’ though, I could just as well do without.

But seriously; I’m glad I don’t have to make decisions about this in real life. Just wish that those that DO make such decisions were more competent.

Natasha Kinski in cat people.Now that was a fine chimera.Except for the killing everyone part.

I didn't really like FMA that much, but yeah, the word chimera will always remind me of the show.

Marxists always on the quest to create the perfect sheeple...

Not only is this unethical, its downright dangerous. We hear the constant hysteria about “global pandemic”, then on the otherhand the unethical are messing around with genetics which could accidently create new strains of deadly disease which could cross the species barrier, disease such as mad cow (prionic mutations)

You are right. There;s a whole lot of ignorance out there. Giving a scientist carte blanche is like giving a five-year-old a box of matches to play with.

The brits are sick.

Per Exodus, if a man has sexual relations with an animal, both the man and the animal shall be put to death. If a woman has sexual relations with an animal, only the woman has been put to death. By my read, animals are blameless in such sexual relations, but the potential creation of a chimera would be unacceptable.

Good dog. Remember, not a word to my wife, OK?
I'll bring you a bone and some popsicles for the kids.

"Oi! What 'er yoo lookin' at mate?!?"

[Zeon Cowboy]

LOL - I thought it was kind of overrated/over-hyped. Plus, the only characters I liked were Scar, Greed, and Bradley, and, well, you know what happens to them...

[virgil]

Yeah. How do they insure that this hybridization stuff won’t make humans more susceptable to animal diseases? They think we should trust them with this. Sheeesh
