How far will they go with their genetic research? Apparently these sheep have been created for organ transplants. I think tampering with nature like this will cause nothing but trouble and could have unforseen consequences. Read the full story here and tell me what you think. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=444436&in_page_id=1770&in_a_source=&ct=5

Sheep - A number of sheep with the shepherd.
Some people believe that they are intelligent and they use such intelligence to try to create what is beyond contemplation and against nature. It's good to live long but if I would be given an organ from an animal, I would rather prefer to die. Anyway, God is in control and if He still wants me to live, then I would still live and I hope that would be for a good purpose.

I can see it now, real...live...sheeple, complete with sheeple divorce courts, sheeple-support, and sheeple rights. As if we didn't have enough problems already.

Oh I don't think this is a good thing...lol I can just see it now...some idiot is out messing with his sheep and a baby is born...with a head of wool and long ears. Oh I just don't like the idea of messing so much with mother nature. I really think there will be severe issues with this as time passes...how bizarre.

Dr. Joseph Mercola of http://www.mercola.com mentions something that bothers me even more. That is about how genetically engineered rice has passed into the rice that is sold for human consumption. To make matters worse I hear that somehow this rice contains human DNA.
