    As opposed to living in fear of them in caves, fighting them off with sticks. In my opinion, science has made more good advances than bad. And from every bad advancement comes a good advancement. Also, vice versa, but pbbbt! (Utilitarianism FTW!)

    I'd rather have most of my body parts have serial numbers and say "Made In Japan" than be a freakish dog/hawk/spider/human hybrid.

    I've got a feeling that when Gems cat ears arrive they will probably still say made in japan.

    As long as nothing of mine comes from tescos, I don't want 'Own-Brand' Blue and White stripe fur thanks. What I do want is the ability to regenerate, hibernate and always land on my feet.

    Get a new heart and a free stake from the same animal! Brilliant!

    Seriously though, its no big deal, at least not yet. We haven't created a chimera (yes, thats what they're callled) that could even possibly be considered human enough to have the rights we give other humans. And we won't for a long time.

    A furry's wet dream?


    Sorry, couldn't resist. :P



    In all seriousness, if we can give little billy who had his legs blown off in an explosion a new set of legs - that just happen to have been grown on the back of a cow - and he can walk again, where's the downside?

    I think that people believing we are going to be making cows w/ IQ's of 150 are overreacting a bit. Perfectly natural, it happens every time there is a radical advancement in science.

Practically every physical trait we posess (except for the opposable thumbs) is inferior to other animals. How 'bout cat or owl eyes, which see way better in the dark? Add in some squid DNA: In their eyes, the blood vessels and nerves don't run on the outside of the photosensitive layer, but on the inside. This means they don't have to gather somewhere and pass through - which is where our blind spot comes from.
    Our sense of smell is quite simply underdeveloped. Now one might argue that having a stronger sense of smell poses some disadvantages along with the advantages - but you can always just pinch your nose.
    Spiders have four pairs of eyes. Three of them are used to give them an excellent field of view, the last one is used to focus on objects of interest. No more getting hit by cars as you cross the street because you didn't see it approaching.
    And so on and so forth. Splicing animal DNA into our own could present us with a stunning range of possible advantages. What's the use in resisting? <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Resistance is futile. We will add their biological distinctiveness to our own.

    Why would you want animal parts? Artificial replacements would last longer, take more abuse, and let you do cool stuff, like shoot lazers out of your eyes. Become something more than a sentient sack of protoplasm. >:D

    Granted the bees actually follow your every command.

    Get a bee hive on your forehead and a lazer on your chin to counter the angry bees.
