...it's right around this area that things get fuzzy since you're manipulating things at the cellular level. From what I've heard this is another possible way to get stem cells. Fuse human skin cells with the egg of some animal and let it develop so it starts producing human stem cells.</end quote>

I dunno...I'm fairly open-minded when it comes to scientific research. But when it comes to blending <i>species</i>, I think there are just somethings in nature that shouldn't be messed with. This sounds like something off the Sci-Fi channel to me...too creepy! If I believed for one minute that this kind of experimentation would remain only at the cellular level, that would be one thing. But humans like to screw around when and where they aren't supposed to, so who knows where this might lead...call me a conspiracy theorist if you want, but that's my view.

As for the Catholic church's view on the subject...lets just say there are reasons why I am an agnostic and leave it at that.

I'm with everyone else...WTF?

What is the point of hybrid embryos? How would they help find a cure? I dont agree with the Catholic Church (I am not catholic, just christian) I dont believe ppl should mess with things like this.

I saw something on Discovery (or channel like that) called Beyond Invention. They were mixing Spider DNA into Goats to get spider silk out of the goat's milk. And no, the goats didnt have eight legs, they looked like regular goats, but some of them hand no physical ears which looked alien like. It was beyond strange if you ask me. They want to mass produce Spider Silk (that they make their webs out of) because it is proven to be stronger than steel. They want to find a way to make buildings out of it. Good concept (stronger buildings), weird way to go about doing it.

Hybrid Cars, why not Hybrid Embryos!?
I agree, messin with mother nature's gonna have some recoil!!
You'd think they've done enough with global warming...let's do something about global "cooling" rather than "hybrid embryos", eh!?
How about something like plants that would make a difference in cooling the place a little...only problem with that is if the plants were to spread...ICE AGE!?
