LONDON (Reuters) - The way was cleared on Thursday for scientists to conduct experiments using hybrid animal-human embryos after the government bowed to a storm of protest from researchers who said a proposed ban could hurt British science.

The Department of Health said it would accept a recommendation from the Commons Science and Technology Committee that inter-species embryos could be created for research.

Scientists want to use the hybrid embryos to find cures for illnesses such as Parkinson's, stroke and Alzheimer's.

In December, the government had proposed a ban on creating the hybrid embryos, due to what it called "considerable public unease," with the door left open for later regulations that could allow such research under licence.

The change comes after sustained pressure from scientists and politicians who argued the hybrid embryos would help overcome a shortage of human eggs for research.

Researchers currently rely on human eggs left over from fertility treatments, but these are in short supply.

The hybrid embryos, which would be destroyed within 14 days, would be more than 99 percent human but would contain a small amount of animal DNA.

Scientists say that any imposition of a ban would see research in other countries, such as China and Canada, overtake Britain.

The government made its announcement as it published its draft Human Tissues and Embryos Bill.

The draft legislation as written still bars the creation of inter-species embryos, with the government leaving it to a committee of MPs due to scrutinise the bill to find the best way of allowing the research.

Playing God is meddeling foolishness!

Yep!

This is ignorance 100 fold by the hand of man....

I concure. Ignorance is bliss, but the LORD is coming again soon. Wake up!

A while ago, the scientists said that all that was needed for the HN51 bird flu to mutate to become communicable from human to human was incubator where it can swap genes and become deadly to humans...a pig with both pig and human genes would be the perfect incubator to allow the virus to swap genes and become a plague...."one will be taken and the other left" some believe this refers to bird flu since it kills half of who it infects. These scientists KNOW through SCIENCE that they are creating a conditions under which a super virus could develop but the scientists use knowledge without any wisdom! They act like because they are scientist, they are holy, no one can criticize them or tell them what to do.

good job its not a squirrel then!

Seriously, it is rather sickening isnt it. Why on earth do they want to do this unless it was for sinister reasons?

They were tinkering with animals also in the days of Noah... Since the Bible says "ALL FLESH" has become corrupted...
We know what happened next (the Flood)...

Ergo the Rapture is around the corner!

Everytime man tries to create his own order, chaos comes in...



Revelation 19:11 (It reminds me of my birthday: 19 November...)

Yes they were...This made me think about that when I first heard about this...We were just studing that era also when Sodem and G were corrupt...

Things are coming full circle...

Agree, lovey!

"as in the days of Noah...."

Steve's comment: this is just the tip of the iceberg - Adamicide or the extermination of the descendants of Adam and Eve fully underway!
