Pretty disgusting...
Guess we have to take the ugly along with the funny.

Wow... ((( Smiles )))
That is so odd.. Somebodies been watching to many eposodes of the Planet of the Apes. I guess thats the world they want to live in. Land of the mutants. Kind of scarry though. Thoses kind of scientist's in the lab. Stirring the pot. Trying to mix thing's up like that. Hmmmm.. Interesting indeed... Never heard of that before.. That is pretty disgusting.. That they would try to do that. At all..

http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/latestnews/Exclusive-Half-man-half-chimp.4028970.jpA LEADING scientist has warned a new species of "humanzee," created from breeding apes with humans, could become a reality unless the government acts to stop scientists experimenting. In an interview with The Scotsman, Dr Calum MacKellar, director of research at the Scottish Council on Human Bioethics, warned the controversial draft Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill did not prevent human sperm being inseminated into animals.
The loophole doesn't look like a very convincing "accident", if you ask me. Things may not be quite so simple as they think, however. I had a hunch the germs would differ substantially, and started googling. http://www.robolase.ucsd.edu/movies.htmlThis movie in comparison to the next movie shows the extreme difference between sperm from multi-partner mating primates (chimp sperm, fast and strong) and single partner mating primates (gorilla sperm, slow and weak). Also http://www.biolreprod.org/content/32/2/399.abstract?ck=nckThese data show that chimpanzee sperm undergo extensive surface modifications during epididymal maturation and that some of these modifications may be related to exogenous proteins/glycoproteins in epididymal fluids Somehow I lost interest in researching further. I doubt any difference of this type between humans and chimps could be a scale-tipping factor for the deluded. Just look at how many obvious differences everyone already sees.

In case anyone's interested, I'll save them a little time. Here are links to other tabs I had open. http://www.zeropaid.com/bbs/archive/index.php/t-34409.htmlhttp://www.messybeast.com/genetics/hybrid-primates.htmhttp://yannklimentidis.blogspot.com/2007/08/sperm-competition-in-chimps-and-humans.htmlwhich reports ...Mitochondria provide a substantial part of the energy required for sperm motility. A higher mitochondrial loading may therefore be associated with enhanced sperm motility and/or longevity. Additionally, examination of JC-1 red fluorescence levels before and after in vitro capacitation revealed further differences. Whereas chimpanzee sperm showed maintenance of membrane potential after capacitation (in some cases even an increase), sperm from humans consistently showed reduction in membrane potential. These results indicate that the sperm of human beings and chimpanzees exhibit marked differences in mitochondrial function, which are affected by selection pressures relating to sperm competition and that these pressures differ significantly between humans and chimpanzees.

Forgive the link-heavy post. This stuff is too disgusting to talk about much. It's so nutty one doesn't want to believe it, but these jokers are actually not joking. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_liberation_movementhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Ape_Projecthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_on_Great_Apeshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Ape_Trusthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Ape_personhoodhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_ape_research_banAnd what anti-God, anti-truth movement would be complete without satanic regalia? Oh yes, they thumb their noses at morality, quite openly: The declaration states that members of the community of equals, which includes humans, may not be killed except in certain strictly defined circumstances such as self-defense or abortion The statement clearly confesses that abortion is killing humans. Killing a monkey is "wrong", but defenseless babies are no problem. Well, defenseless human babies anyhow...

Richard Dawkins' pro-humanzee piece He's very ambitious about abolishing morality.

I did not find 'humanzee' on the ICR web, but I did find this article. Interesting.... Chimps and People Show 'Architectural' Genetic Design by Brian Thomas, M.S. An international team of geneticists recently set out to explore in more detail the evolutionary relationship between humans and chimpanzees. Despite their assumption that man and chimp share a common ancestor, their findings are actually more consistent with the creation model. In the study, which was published in the November 2008 issue of the journal Genome Research, the geneticists compared the genomes of 30 chimpanzees with those of 30 central African humans. Their techniques targeted special DNA sequences, some of which contain genes that occur in multiples or in few numbers in different individuals. These “copy number variations” (CNVs) are peculiar because each one ranges from about one thousand to one million DNA bases long, and they are often found in places where chromosomes are regularly chopped and spliced. Higher numbers of particular CNVs (and the genes they contain) can aid the immune system in resisting certain diseases. Some specifications of CNV design are that they are regions of DNA that are variably repeated, are often found in zones that are copied and spliced, and contain immune system (and few other) genes. They do not contain core genes, which are essential to basic cell function. If such genes were housed in an area that was more vulnerable to volatility and change, the survival of the cell itself would be at risk. How does the cell “know” how to protect itself in this manner? According to the evolutionary model, it is the result of non-directed natural selection. According to the creation model, the Creator wisely placed core genes in regions of chromosomes that are much more stable. Conversely, it seems reasonable that the same Creator placed other genes in more volatile regions of chromosomes for the purpose of allowing more variety and survivability in succeeding generations. At one point in their Genome Research report, the investigators referred to the chromosomal arrangement of CNVs as “sequence motifs or architectures.”1 “Architecture” logically suggests an architect. Although these researchers have encountered architectural (designed) features in DNA, they hold fast to their belief that nature itself is the architect, even though scientists have not discovered a plausible mechanism or observable example. It would make sense that a Master Architect fashioned these attributes—some unique to chimpanzees, some unique to humans, and others quite similar in both—in genomes so that each group could better survive the different diseases it might encounter. These genetic “architectures” provide evidence for purposeful design and are more consistent with being the products of an all-knowing God as the Bible describes, rather than the products of indiscriminate nature.Reference 1.

--  Humans, Chimps and NOW CHICKENS? Interesting .... Are Humans as Close to Chickens as They Are to Chimps? by Brian Thomas, M.S. * A recent comprehensive analysis compared the human Y chromosome with the chimpanzee Y chromosome, and the researchers found that they were “remarkably divergent.”1 The Y chromosome is found only in males and contains many genes that specify male features, as well as genetic and regulatory information that is expressed throughout the whole body. In a study published in the January issue of Nature, a large team of scientists encountered so many unforeseen differences in the DNA sequences of the human and chimp Y chromosomes that the research took much longer than they had originally anticipated. Among their discoveries were interesting features unique to certain “sequence classes” within each chromosome. Most of their findings do not fit well with the often-repeated erroneous statement that humans and chimps are 98 percent similar, nor with the more general hypothesis that they share a common ancestor.2 One sequence class within the chimpanzee Y chromosome had less than 10 percent similarity with the same class in the human Y chromosome, and vice versa. Another large class shared only half the similarities of the other species, and vice versa. And one whole class on the human Y chromosome “has no counterpart in the chimpanzee MSY [male-specific Y chromosome].”1 Under evolutionary assumptions of long and gradual genetic changes, the Y chromosome structures, layouts, genes, and other sequences should be much the same in both species, given the relatively short—according to the evolutionary timeline—six-million-year time span since chimpanzees and humans supposedly diverged from a common ancestor. Instead, the differences between the chromosomes are marked. R. Scott Hawley, a genetics researcher at the Stowers Institute in Kansas City who wasn’t involved in the research, told the Associated Press, “That result is astounding.”3 The Nature paper expressed the mismatch between this data and standard evolutionary interpretations in a more muted tone: “Indeed, at 6 million years of separation, the difference in MSY gene content in chimpanzee and human is more comparable to the difference in autosomal gene content in chicken and human, at 310 million years of separation.”1 Autosomes are the chromosomes other than the X and Y. So, the human Y chromosome looks just as different from a chimp’s as the other human chromosomes do from a chicken’s. And to explain where all these differences between humans and chimps came from, believers in big-picture evolution are forced to invent stories of rapid wholesale rearrangements, and rapid generation of both new gene-containing and regulatory DNA. But since each respective Y chromosome appears fully integrated and interdependent with its host organism, the most logical conclusion is that humans and chimpanzees were each specially created as distinct creatures.
