As long as it's organs and not brains

Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

Nothing new. They were doing these types of experiments ack in the 1960s. I remember a supermarket tabloid with the headlines...LADIES, WILL YOUR NEXT HUSBAND LOOK LIKE THIS?

Scarey stuff, indeed. This really goes against the natural order of things, in my opinion.

“What could possibly go wrong?”

That’s what they said 30,000 years ago. And Big Foot is STILL roaming the woods!
