Chimeras: Scientists Create Embryos That Are Part Animal And Part Human!
READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE (May 6, 2015)
A small group of scientists across the United States are attempting to create embryos that are part human and part animal, otherwise known as chimeras.
Chimera is a term for a mythical Greek creature consisting of part lion, part goat and part snake. In modern times, the term has been used to describe a single organism composed of cells from different zygotes.
The experiments involve inserting human stem cells into burgeoning embryos from other species, thereby spawning chimeras. In actuality, researchers have been creating human chimeras, at least in part, for years. For instance, scientists already study rats with human tumors to better understand cancer.
What makes the recent research unique is that it would involve in the insertion of human stem cells into the embryos of non-human animals during the early stages of embryonic development.
“The special issue here with stem cells is that those types of human cells are so powerful and so elastic that there’s great worry about the degree to which the animals could become humanized,” explained Insoo Hyun, a bioethicist at Case Western Reserve University, in an article for NPR.
The motivation behind the research is to produce chimeras that could pave way for new treatment options for human diseases. For instance, scientists could use the technology to develop more efficient animal models while studying diseases in a lab.

I, YAHUVEH, Say, “You are on a Countdown of MY Patience!”
May 25, 2008
And America, I have not even begun. Again and again I said, I have saved the worst for last. You have not even, even, even begun to taste MY wrath. And Europe, think not that you will escape your fate. Right now there is only one loud voice protesting that which I find an abomination and I use the Catholic church, remember, as I used the donkey to speak out of, I use the Catholic church to warn, to warn about the sanctity of life. Where are the others? Where are the other organized religions? A worldwide outcry should have gone forth to join together an animal and human embryo, to even devise such a plan, to have a half human and half animal, you do not even begin to know the road that you have started to walk upon. To mock ME with the sanctity of marriage? There should have been a worldwide outcry against same sex marriage! Why is it so silent? Where are the churches? Why don’t all those in Islam raise up? They care about a cartoon! They send terror into anyone that does not agree with them. But why are they silent?

I, YAHUVEH, Say, “Judgment Is Set!”
June 6, 2008
The beginning of wisdom is to fear offending your CREATOR! The Holy have become more Holy, the wicked have become more wicked. MY vengeance, MY judgment has come down and will continue to come down until MY wrath is spent.
Holy Bride you ask for MY Judgment against homosexuality and this mockery of same sex marriage, the cloning of man, the mixing of a human embryo and an animal. You’re going to see MY Judgment come down. Keep lifting these things up to ME (1 Thess 5:17). Do not be weary when you pray (Luke 18:1-8). March in Victory and know that I am going to answer as swift Judgment shall come on these enemies. Line upon line, precept upon precept you shall see these things come to pass.
