In a news flash from England, it seems as if Splice has met the Planet of the Apes. The Daily Mail reported that British scientists " have created more than 150 human-animal hybrid embryos" in British laboratories. Now, if it can happen in Britain, it can happen anywhere. At least Britain has some regulations. In fact, truth be told, I know many countries do not have regulations. Few countries tell the truth about anything when it comes to science and scientific experimentation.
Just a personal aside, I always thought God created, but in our brave new world, man has taken over that job. Like any job that man takes away from God, man becomes the loser in the end. In our brave new world, man has become mad in his creations...to quote the British Mail, "the hybrids have been produced in secret over the past three years by researchers looking into possible cures for a wide range of diseases." Have we heard that before? I think we have. Embryonic stem cell research has been sold to the public as a panacea of cures for every disease. This has produced a government funded disaster - no cures, but lots of bodies and more promises from the"scientific" community.
A wise priest long ago said, "all social engineering is preceded by verbal engineering." Boy is this coming home to roost. Movies abound about transhumanism. In the movie, Planet of the Apes, poor Charlton Heston was simply mixed up, but he was mixed up with a bunch of very smart apes. The remake of this movie is astounding. It doesn't deal with the problems that Charlton dealt with, instead it has progressed, along with society, to modern day lack of ethics. In the remake, the scientist is looking for a cure for Alzheimer's disease. After all, his father is suffering from dementia labeled as Alzheimer's. In the movie, his violation of medical ethics is justified by his desire to find a cure for his father. Of course, the movie doesn't talk about ethics or consequences of actions, but only concentrates on relieving the emotional anxiety of the son.
Fast forward to Britain in today's world. The Daily Mail reported "155 'admixed embryos' containing both human and animal genetic material have been created since the introduction of the 2008 Human Fertilization Embryology Act. "This legalized the creation of a variety of hybrids, including an animal egg fertilized by a human sperm; cybrids, in which a human nucleus is implanted into an animal cell; and chimerias, in which human cells are mixed with animal embryos." This is not too far from the movie Splice. These hybrids, we are told, are killed within 14 days, if you can believe that. In Splice, the scientists couldn't bring themselves to kill what they had created until it killed one of them.
Splice, the movie, depicted two scientists who spliced human DNA with animal DNA and produced a creature that was human in some aspects, but never lost its brute animal character. Now if the United States can have a movie about this topic that the British Mail just discovered, imagine what else is going on in laboratories around the world. Greedy mad scientists are playing God. Of course, they think they are doing God's work. This is because when they look in the mirror in the morning, they see the creator rather than the creature.
Humans Beware!

Excellent article. I had posted more for Proliferations but it got cut. I am going to cross post on my blog.
"Now, if it can happen in Britain, it can happen anywhere. At least Britain has some regulations. In fact, truth be told, I know many countries do not have regulations."
Uh, yeah. Countries like the United States. Back in 2009 scientists in CA published a report on the Reprogramming of Human Somatic Cells Using Human and Animal Oocytes in which they created human/mouse, human/rabbit and human/bovine embryos - not to mention fully human cloned embryos, btw. And we only found out about it after they published their report. God only knows how many other labs are doing this horrifying experimentation here and not reporting on it...yet.
