They call this the "yuck factor" don't they? But I don't think there's much to fear. Two different species, it will (should) be way too difficult for them to create a viable embryo that does in fact continue development into more advanced stages - especially the teenage years.
Awesome. Carry on, brave men in white coats!

What's wrong with the experiment? :confused:
Religious issue (against religion)? Political issue (Bush says so)?

At least the writer of the headline is completely unbiased on this issue.
I would like to hear a good argument as to why experiments like these shouldnt be done, if its good enough i'll consider changing my mind on the subject.
What are you talking about, we do it all the time, and have for centuries? The only difference in this case is that one of the species is a human.Quote:

How very typically short-sighted of religious people.
This is awesome. It comes to show how "powerful" the modern science is. Will this "hybrid" then be known as a different species on it's own, or will it always be a "cow-human"?
"cowman"
