Biology: Human/Animal transfection of stem cellsI find all of this a bit like history/mythology/mistakes repeating:
| Quote: | | Controversy over proposals to create hybrid human-animal embryos as part of stem-cell research (see previous news story) continues as the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) considers whether it has the authority to assess the two applications made for licences to produce such hybrid embryos, and whether the proposed research is even legal...... |

| Quote: | The Roman Catholic Church has called for women to be allowed to give birth to human-animal hybrids created in the laboratory.
Embryos injected with animal cells, or chimeras, should be treated as human beings where they have a preponderance of human genes, the bishops say in a sumbission to a Government committee.
And there should be no ban on implanting such hybrid embryos in the womb of the woman who supplied the original egg, they say in their submission on the Draft Tissue and Embryos Bill.
“Such a woman is the genetic mother, or partial mother, of the embryo; should she have a change of heart and wish to carry her child to term, she should not be prevented from doing so,” the bishops say. |

Why would a church back this kind of nightmare? Not a far stretch from the Catholic Nazis.
