Another dream of biotech researchers has long been reported to be growing pigs with human hearts so they can be slaughtered for heart valves to transplant into humans.

How far does this go? Maybe pigs with part-human brains and voices to work call centers or what? Will food sold in grovery stores someday include human DNA? Will people be told that if they object to eating part-human meat they can pay triple for organic?

This kind of "playing god" has gone entirely too far!
