Playing God

[The One]

Adam Rutherford meets a new creature created by American scientists – the spider-goat. It is part goat, part spider, and its milk can be used to create artificial spider’s web.

It is part of a new field of research, synthetic biology, with a radical aim: to break down nature into spare parts so that we can rebuild it however we please.

This technology is already being used to make bio-diesel to power cars. Other researchers are looking at how we might, one day, control human emotions by sending biological machines into our brains.

I suppose the same thing has been done on this planet before by other advanced races. Have you seen a platypus? That doesn't happen naturally. :)

I saw this on a horison documentry last week, Looks like we are going back to Atlantian times right enough. Playing God by messing around with creation. Hopefully they will realize before the same fate as Atlantis falls upon them.
