A few days ago I read something about that in the newspaper. It said the scientists are working on something new and trying to copy some of the human gens to an animal so when it is born their body can be used to cure some illnesses such as cancer or alzheimer.
Some of the politicians are againist it, and many people from many religions.
What do you think of the situation? Do you think it is ethic or not?

If such a thing is possible, I think the very idea should be banished.
People need to quit playing God!

Sorry, I'm not here for your entertainment.
I am here for my own.
And the last time I looked, this was a site where we can post freely. For you to demand that I NOT mention a certain thing is ludicrous.
If you don't want to hear someone's opinion unless they agree with you, then don't start discussions.
I'm not playing anymore.

Well, now that human stem cells can be made from skin cells, religion can finally keep out of science like they always should. And while they're at it, stop going to the doctor. If god can cure diseases, isn't it playing god to take medication for them? That sounds a bit sacrilegious to me :).

Exactly, and this title is just the kind of sensationalist headline that lets people get angry without actually bothering to inform themselves first :).

This is an interesting question. Well, there are still many human diseases that can't be treated well. we may need to borrow some genes from animal that has specific ability.
I don't care how agreement is, but it's a good method for curing human disease
