    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.

    What's wrong with the experiment?

    Religious issue (against religion)? Political issue (Bush says so)?

    Hmmm let me think, oh yeah, how about a Science Issue, combining two different species comes to mind right away. You are being funny, right?

    No I'm serious!

    Scientific progress is often apparently blasphemous at first (the world is round, the sun doesn't revolve around the earth), initially resisted, but in the end it brings about a greater understanding of our Universe. In this case, us.

    Re: We are all going to hell

    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.

    I find it interesting that Mark immediately attributed Atheist's support for this venture to the fact that he is an atheist.

    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"?
