British PM Backs Human-Animal Hybrid Embryo Research Bill
Sunday, May 18, 2008

LONDON —  Britain's prime minister says he backs a new law that would allow the creation of animal-human hybrid embryos.

The embryos are created using empty animal eggs and human genetic material. Scientists say such embryos could be an important source of stem cells. Those in turn could potentially used to treat diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.

However the technology disturbs some who believe it could lead to the genetic engineering of human beings. Gordon Brown wrote in The Observer Sunday that he supported the research.

British lawmakers are due to vote on the matter next week as part of a series of proposals covering abortion, embryology and genetic screening.

I think it's good. 

The sooner we can genetically alter ourselves the better.

Hi BB ;D

Ah the board punk cannot stop talking about me.  :)  Do I have a new stalker?  You're not nearly as funny as my old one.  Funny how you mentioned getting married right after last week's California Supreme Court decision.  Will you be inviting the getbig board members to your wedding?

you're making gay jokes, quite homophobic.

You also called Obama a "halfrican" repeatedly, which many took as racist.

You also belittle my ability to be a stay-at-home dady, making you sexist.

You've said anyone who believes in UFOs doesn't deserve the 1st or 2nd amendment rights, making you anti-American, as you hate the constitution.

And you derail threads nonstop.

What wrong with it? Maybe this is the path to curing certain illnesses.

Don't assume that we'll be making mutant freaks anytime soon.
