Now, apparently, they've genetically modified cows to produce human breast milk (news.sky.com 3&lid=ARTICLE_16006586_China%3A_Scientists_Engineer_ Genetically_Modified_Cows_To_Produce_Human_Breast_ Milk)!! :horrified :groan: They try to justify it: "There are 1.5 billion people in the world who don't get enough to eat. It's our duty to develop science and technology, not to hold it back. We need to feed people first, before we consider ideals and convictions". Professor Li Ning, director of the research project - So, is GM a) necessary and b) acceptable?	tuiruru (12277)

1207812	2011-06-08 13:13:00	I find it udderly weird :p	rob_on_guitar (4196)
1207813	2011-06-08 13:39:00	I think its good. There are too many moral and ethical restrictions on scientific progress, once someone does it and gets the research done then its done and can be used by all.	DeSade (984)
1207814	2011-06-08 21:04:00	I think it's totally un ethical, sure science has it's uses but it needs to stay fixing things that need fixing and leave alone things that do not	gary67 (56)

I want to see convulvulous genetically engineered to be useful and tasty (cheese and onion flavour). I want to see Gorse genetically engineered to be useful. I want to see the labour party genetically engineered to be useful. I want to see kikuyu grass genetically engineered to be useful. I want to see eggs genetically engineered to taste like bacon. I want to see non native pigeons genetically engineered to die, (flying rats). I want to see women have boobies on their heads, so you have a reason to look them in the eyes or at least in the vague direction of the eyes. I want to see gangsta rappers (& the obese south auckland wannabes) genetically engineered to die quickly.	Morgenmuffel (187)

1207817	2011-06-08 21:43:00	Actually I like this comment from that page May i suggest that various images of womens breasts could advertise the volume of milk in each carton ie a B cup would represent 0.5 Litres, a C cup 1 Litre and a DD cup would represent 2 Litres. Going to have to invest in a bigger fridge phwoooaarr	Morgenmuffel (187)
1207818	2011-06-08 21:53:00	You wouldn't feel that way if you were hungry and GM was the only way to get more out of food.. It's partly the reason for over population of the planet, because the planet cannot naturally support the amount of people around. I've done what I can by choosing not to have children :devil	gary67 (56)
