Bill Saunders, FRC's Senior Fellow and Director, Center for Human Life and Bioethics, has penned an op-ed in today's Washington Times on the hairy issue of human-animal hybrids:
Well, hold onto your hats. It is about to happen. Not here (at least, not yet), but in England. On Sept. 5, a government agency (called the Human Fertilization and Embryology Agency or HFEA) decided to let scientists, mad or otherwise, create human/animal hybrids. Let me repeat: Science fiction will become science fact very soon; and man and beast will be combined into one.

Transgenics didn't get approval? How disapointing... transgenics offered such hope. Cybreds arn't really good for much besides reducing the egg-shortage problem.

"To sum up, after this procedure, there will be living human/animal hybrids, part man, part beast, in England, and very soon."
Its legal to create the embryo, but not to implant them. They wont be living for very long.
