We are watching the and of humanity. It will be used to make humans following leaders.

@beau mancini. Don't get left way behind in some fantasy world. Fasten your seat belt you are in for some amazing transformations coming to your very own culture soon.

Claudia Chestelson Claudia. One of my favorite names! Why would I be left behind when I'm am completely aware of the study of most sciences? How would that proclude me from anything? Whereas your understanding of the Bible and God's Word is no doubt extremely limited. That would put you at the disadvantage. Why not read and understand the Bible before calling it a fantasy, by definition that would be ignorant, which I don't think you'd like to consider yourself as.

Is it possible to change skin color by using crispr system in adult body??

Congratulations.

Totally kicks "Made In Gods Image" to the curb. I can't wait for the march of the mutants.

I truly hope that there are some that recognize the incredible design of life. I'm not certain how any engineer of any discipline could possible believe in spontaneous formation of life or evolution of, well nearly anything, having understanding of any biological processes. It's astounding.

Hey, Mr Holistic let @Beau Mancini know how you with your intellect can enlighten with stem cells as simple working by trodding along only. Shodoo is simply mizu guki no ato, same in simple Japanese. Wakakarhen yaroo nah!

A very charming and capable lady. She makes me think that cloning should be mandatory as I would love one.

Stem cells taken (doctors malpractice) from my thymus (1988), my birth (prolapsed umbilical cord, transversed breach 1961) torture in Bangkok (2006) can be used to explain as something to with my stem cells - when oxygen & glucose levels pretty much gone. Ready to donate my stem cells to enlighten any one ready to broaden mind. Open your minds to the claims being made, because under the right conditions I can not just show how easy it can all be done I can radically change thoughts, while opening up money making for scientists, but for me, since I can't approach death any closer I can likely broaden ideas toward ...ability to get back up. Currently just doing 10,800 push ups/month as unemployed recreation. I have a BSci Microbiology, 4.0 GPA in Biochemistry and Organic Chistry and can recite spdf orbitals of elements in Periodic Table.
