Cue... visions of a female dominated future where men are surplus to requirements.

You can tell your "tadpoles" to stop practicing their swim strokes as they could soon be unnecessary for human reproduction, according to the latest news. This doesn't affect Claude as his gave up swimming lessons in 1980.

    A) Only guys creating mice offsprings need to worry quite yet.
    B) Stem cells are still required
    C) If the only reason a woman wants to be with you is to get pregnant you need to up your game.

    Okay, they have done it with mice.

    The first thing that came to mind was what makes human beings different from animals? And that is that we humans have a spirit (energy) that continues on forever, while our soul (meaning life), dies when we do. (at least to my understanding)

    So they can reproduce mice with souls, but can a human being create a spirit out of man made lab sperm replicas? If not, what would a person be like without a spirit? They essentially would be an animal with animal instincts rather than human ones. To me it would seem that what was being created was a human monster. I find that very scary.

    Please guys, keep your tadpoles swimming.

      Terra, all living or conscious, (not sure about Claude) beings have universal source energy or they would be a pile of beef stew on the floor!

      So, a cloned human, would probably become psychotic or die prematurely from some disease!

      Probably call the first one Frank, (Frankenstein)!

    They said they used testicular tissue also. Anyway, there are a number of reasons why this isn't that great. ALSO, the LAST thing we need is more kids!

      They didn't mention anything about testing it on goats.
