The implications of this are so profound and so unsettling that it is difficult to find the words to convey them adequately.

I think it's wise to remember God told the Israelites: "You are to keep my statues. You shall not breed together two kinds of your cattle...: Lev. 19:19

The ideas that injecting human brain cell material into a mouse foetus will turn it into an intelligent mouse, or some sort of percentile-human, is ludicrous.

Statements like "this mouse will therefore be 1% human" are non-scientific gibberish. It will be a mouse which someone messed with at conception. Inject away! It won't be a human. Knock yourself out.

Thanks, mojito, for posting this article.

Are you a man or a mouse?

Give me some cheese, and maybe I'll tell you.

The experiment will be done "cause they can do it".

Killing is only wrong on the battle field, not in abortion clinics, labs where humans are created or old folks homes.

Our world has tilted, the lucky will all fall off of it now.

"Fusing a human and chimpanzee embryo - which researchers say is feasible - could produce a creature so human that questions regarding its moral and legal status would throw 4,000 years of ethics into chaos. Would such a creature enjoy human rights? Would it have to pass some kind of "humanness" test to win its freedom? Would it be forced into doing menial labour or be used to perform dangerous activities"

A chimp has 4 times the strength of a man per unit of body mass. Imagine a creature who was part human and part chimp with the size of a man.

... if they showed any signs of humanness he would kill them.

Hey, isn't that the current policy at the DNC?

"Weissman is considering a follow-up that would produce mice whose brains are 100% human"

Great. Mice demanding welfare. Just great.

This could work better than freezing your head after you die:

Once someone is terminally ill, have scientists take a sample of his genetic material to make a chimpanzee they can transplant his head to until the day science can make you a new human body for him.

>>>
Weissman says that he would keep a tight rein on the mice, and if they showed any signs of humanness he would kill them.
<<<

Not quite sure why, but I found that line funny!

This is really scary stuff. Manimals. Message to these "scientists" -- Leave God's creations alone!

This is just wrong. I was hoping it was satire, but it appears to be serious.
