Quote:July 1, 2025 / Joseph P. Farrell
Well it has finally happened, and I knew it would when I took my doctoral diploma from Oxford off the wall, and hid it in my closet because of the depraved depths to which it had sunk. What event has "finally happened". Oxford and Cambridge have both become C.S. Lewis's fictional Edgestow, and sold its old quadrangles for the pottage of his equally fictional, and quite prophetic scientism of the National Institute of Coordinated Experiments (N.I.C.E.). I'm referring to the following story shared by W.G. (with our gratitude):
Controversy Erupts As Scientists Start Work To Create Artificial Human DNAThe Synthetic Human Genome Project is being funded by the Wellcome Trust, which has donated Rs 117 crore (10 million pounds).
Yes, you read that correctly: scientismists want to create synthetic human DNA, and they don't mean just tinkering with a few genes here or there, they want to synthesize all of it:
Quote:Scientists have begun work on a controversial project that aims to create human DNA from scratch. World's largest medical charity, the Wellcome Trust, has donated Rs 117 crore (10 million pounds) to start the project, which involves scientists from universities including Oxford, Cambridge and Imperial College.
Regarded as the building blocks of human life, DNA is made up of repeating units called nucleotides, which contain all the genetic information that physically makes us who we are. Scientists involved in the Synthetic Human Genome Project are now attempting to create a fully synthetic human chromosome, making up about two per cent of human DNA, as proof of concept. The ultimate aim is to maybe one day, create all of it from scratch. (Emphasis added)
And of course, the usual marketing gimmick accompanies this scientism: it is all about promoting human health and - here it comes - longevity:
Quote:"The sky is the limit. We are looking at therapies that will improve people's lives as they age, that will lead to healthier ageing with less disease as they get older," Dr Julian Sale, of the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, who is part of the project, told the BBC.
"We are looking to use this approach to generate disease-resistant cells we can use to repopulate damaged organs, for example, in the liver and the heart, even the immune system," he said.
As per Professor Matthew Hurles, director of the Wellcome Sanger Insititute, studying how genes and DNA regulate our bodies could help us pinpoint when they go wrong and ultimately develop better treatments.
"Building DNA from scratch allows us to test out how DNA really works and test out new theories, because currently we can only really do that by tweaking DNA in DNA that already exists in living systems," said Mr Hurles.
Do we really need to rehearse the dangers inherent in this whole project and its goal? They are trying to create the "perfect human", one devoid of "genetic imperfections" - with all their tendencies to various diseases and ailments and dismorphisms and frailties - that afflict us all. That's the marketing and advertising for the scheme. But the ideas of "perfection" are going to be left up to the technocrats in charge of the project. Suppose they are successful in creating "the perfect man" - which they won't be, but just suppose they create something they believe to be "perfect" - will that "perfection" be able to avoid the typical human tendency to "look down upon" perceived inferiors (and by the way, those perceived inferiors are the rest of us)? The answer to that question is provided by human history itself, with example after example of the "new man" slaughtering his "inferiors" at an industrial scale.
And this is the second problem with their scientism: not all of humanity's flaws are genetic. Indeed, most of them are not material flaws at all, and if you were paying attention in Sunday school those material flaws were somehow the material result - the effect - of deeper immaterial causes. Do we really want to bring longevity to the one-man horror shows and the long-train of abusers (to paraphrase the Declaration of Independence) that were Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot and so on?
We know what else will happen: already the scientismists have pointed the way by creating chimeras: growing human ears on pig embryos and putting human brain cells into mice. What's to stop the process in reverse? What if the "ideal of the perfect man" includes scorpion stingers, wings and feathers, prehensil tails? Why not create special chimerical "humanimals" or "manimals" to perform specific tasks? (Who needs robots, after all? We know the answer to that as well: whichever is cheaper and easier to control.)
Of course, no one will listen to those of us trying to sound the alarm about all of this, because the scientismists will do it simply because they can, and because they've already convinced themselves that they are of sufficient wisdom to control it all, that they, indeed, did not fall, but that the rest of man did, and that they are here to help. Nevertheless, it needs to be said anyway: this is the path to to a very inhuman hell. Someday, perhaps even soon, everyone will be faced with a choice: either take the technological and technocratic immortality and hell of Lewis' National Institute of Coordinated Experiments (N.I.C.E.), or take another one that is entirely gratis.
See you on the flip side...

"Synth"
It will become the 21st century obsession.
