The alternative title to this thread would have been "Science to create Man Bear Pig" 1/17/2008 3:58:58 PM |

This will prevent a race of man-pigs from developing and eventually destroying us.1/17/2008 4:03:34 PM |

Oh man, I called this 2 weeks ago:
"cause you can mix a lot of sexual abominations but you can't mix incest and bestiality"
"I hope that eventually science will make it possible."

I hope some sicko doctor decides not to destroy a batch of turtle-human hybrids. One day they'll become the coolest sewer dwelling crime fighters in the world! 1/17/2008 4:07:51 PM |

i fail to see the scientific value in this, it just seems like something to do just to say you did it. 1/17/2008 4:22:09 PM |

Think of the furries, dude.
This is a dream come true for them.
(Once we get around the laws.)
Physical furries FTW. 1/17/2008 4:30:23 PM |

Coming soon: The kangaroo dudes from Tank Girl!
Also: I can imagine that somebody's going to violate the law somewhere along the line with this research and cause a real problem. They'll find some way to bring SOMETHING to term and then, when the retarded thing falls out and dies, it shows up on the news and they get arrested. It could be the new thing to be afraid of!

these already exist and are very commonly used especially in neuroscience research (they are "brought to term" and are mice with a certain percentage of human neurons, but some have essentially entirely human neurons in the brain)
