Taking Playing God to a Whole New Low

There is a new twist to in vitro fertilization that takes the whole process to what has got to be an even worse level than before. & the scientists behind this calling what they did "like changing the battery on a laptop." is just more proof of how sick & perveted our culture has gotten.

I was put on to this by a post on Patrick Madrid's blog (link below). He talked about what the "mad scientists" were up to. & while he had mad lined out the point is that is exactly what they are. & I agree. I also agree with what he went on to say about this bringing to mind warning from the Lord Jesus Christ:

"'Truly, I say to you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town' (Matt. 10:15).
Now, instead of a "town" in which evil and immorality is practiced on a wide scale, this blight has overcome an entire civilization. Woe to us if we don't turn away from this kind of nightmarish meddling with God's creation — and soon. And, to be candid, at times like this, I am inclined to think that it may already be too late."

If it isn't too late, then we are closer than ever to it being so. God have mercy on us all.

‘3 parent’ kids

UK scientists have created "designer embryos" containing DNA from a man and TWO women.
The breakthrough gives hope of healthy children to couples with genetic disorders in their families.
It also offers the prospect of eradicating fatal genetic diseases.
But the procedure - dubbed three person IVF - sparked controversy last night.
Researchers at Newcastle University set out to prevent damaged DNA in mitochondria - the "batteries" that power cells - from being passed on to offspring.

They removed nuclei from the sperm and egg of affected couples, leaving behind the mitochondria.
The nuclei were put into one of the fertilised eggs left over after other women had IVF treatment.
This egg had its nuclei removed - but retained its healthy mitochondria.
Eighty embryos were created but destroyed after eight days.
Lead researcher Professor Doug Turnbull said: "What we've done is like changing the battery on a laptop."
The scientists would need a special licence to culture embryos for longer periods and the procedure would currently be illegal in IVF clinics.
One in 200 British children born each year has a genetic mutation and some are fatal.
But opponent Josephine Quintavalle, of the anti-cloning group CORE, said: "They are creating a child with two mothers. We have to find better ways to cure diseases."
