100% lab-grown babies in FIVE YEARS... - EndtheMadnessNow - 05-25-2023 So they say. Quote:Growing human babies from scratch in a lab could be possible in just five years thanks to a new breakthrough.Daily Mail Quote:In 1930 Frederick Edwin Smith, the First Earl of Birkenhead, wrote a book, The World in 2030 A.D., containing predictions about war (it’ll be less vicious when the world is a “single economic unit”), the state of agriculture (it will gradually go extinct), and the effects of science (Einsteinian physics will “provide the instinctive background to all men’s minds.”) When searching for "lab grown babies" in circa 2001 I get tons of hits on human cloning and this one: Senate Hearing on Human Cloning RE: 100% lab-grown babies in FIVE YEARS... - Freija - 05-25-2023 Not surprising. This video is from six years ago. RE: 100% lab-grown babies in FIVE YEARS... - Ninurta - 05-26-2023 You read about stuff like this, and have to ask yourself "why?". Why would they pursue something of this nature? It opens the door for quandaries. For example, if they produced both gametes from blood cells of the same individual, would the resulting offspring be a clone? If they produced both gametes from a male, couldn't they make both male and female clones of that guy just by reduplicating his X chromosome and eliminating the Y to make the female "him"? Of course, they couldn't produce a male offspring from a single female donor, because they wouldn't have the Y chromosome to work with, but it should be possible to induce the X chromosome from a male to reduplicate, thus having two X chromosomes. Get rid of the Y, and you suddenly have a female "clone" of a male person. What are the ethics of THAT? What if you produced a male and female "clone" from the same guy, and then they reproduced - would his "grandchildren" still be clones of himself, since ALL of the original genetic material came from him? How many generations of "clones" from this same guy could they keep going? Indefinitely? There are just some things that mankind ought not to be screwing around with. .

There were rumors and movies about some A.I. taking over and relegating humans to noting more than waiters waiting on their A.I. Masters (if the A.I. permitted humans to survive at all but those were just movies for box office receipts.) What was being missed (more or less under the table) was the research into genetic editing that was going on around the world to create smarter faster healthier individuals by gene splicing and editing. There were restrictions in Western countries because such science was considered Taboo yet, in other countries (China in particular) there was only lip service as they proceeded with their plans to create a super human in both brains and brawn as their morals contained no such Taboo against this type of research and development. The Chinese as of 2022 already had an average I.Q. of 105 where other poorer countries were lucky to have anything over an I.Q. Of 65/80 which was adequate for most subsistence living and breeding yet you could not expect any scientific breakthroughs from such a society. Other factors come in, such has having your greatest minds try to figure out how many Angels can dance on the head of a pin or creating new and better ways to suppress the females in your society through scripture; either of which does not help any real scientific endeavor, especially when females are quite capable of being smarter than the suppressors. Back in 2018 a Chinese research Doctor claimed he had created three babies who were born with natural immunity against AIDS.. He was sentenced to three years in jail for his creations; not because of what he had created but because he was showing just how far along the research was progressing in spite of the Chinese saying to the world they were not creating designer babies.. By 2022 the Chinese had gone into full production mode of their new and improved designer babies. They had two sets they were developing. I suppose you could call one set the super intelligent and the other set the bigger faster stronger military set. They finally figured out they could have both traits in the same individual so production was once again ramped up as young women were forceably used to give birth to these new creations whether they wanted to or not (they were paid and received a certificate calling them Exalted Birthers; some birthed 12 children). After birth these babies were taken by the state and nurtured and educated to help foster and bring out their incredible traits for the betterment of the Chinese race. (The Spartans could have learned a few things from this education system as it was cruel and very strict. When some child faltered they were usually not given a second chance depending on their age). Little did those who were in control realize that in just 20 years these super soldiers and deep thinkers would formulate a plan to dispose of the current Chinese leadership, They completely restructured Chinese society so they were the top dogs and everyone else no matter where or what country they lived in were there to serve them or die. The End RE: 100% lab-grown babies in FIVE YEARS... - GeauxHomeLittleD - 05-26-2023 I imagine if this progresses the Hollywood crowd will be lining up in droves! For years actresses have adopted, hired surrogates, had abortions or had thousands upon thousands of dollars on plastic surgeries in an attempt to keep their bodies looking like they never given birth- no stretch marks, flat tummies, no saggy boobs, no baby weight, etc. It is necessary in order to keep their careers moving forward as Hollywood only cares about appearances. If this technology is perfected and made available to the public there may not be any natural birth from actresses or songstresses ever again, and the star struck fans will follow in their footsteps like sheep.
