Just In Case You Weren’t Worried About Transgendered Bathrooms, We Now Have This
Okay, I’m just going to quote it because you won’t believe me if I tell you.
Where do candidates for the Kansas Legislature stand on human-animal hybrids?
That’s something that Kansans For Life, the state’s leading anti-abortion group, wants to know.
A questionnaire that KFL’s political action committee sent out to legislative candidates this month asks candidates whether they oppose human cloning and the creation of human-animal hybrids …
And what is your stance on zombies? Loch Ness monster? How about that thing where you put your hand in the blender and then turn it on? Do you favor that or not?
Because you never know what the liberals are going to do next.
Thanks to Carl for the heads up.
I thought all life was sacred? They are dissing on ManBear?
1Yet the snacilbupeR have Donnie Drumpf, the result of an encounter between a Scottish woman and an orangutan, as their presumptive nominee.
2They’re probably having a hissy fit because thanks to fancy-dancy biomedical research, it’s now possible to get non-human critters to grow human replacement organs.
Right wingnuts would rather people did than get treatment they disapproved.
3Ohferpete’ssake. KFL needs to get their own lives and shut up!!
4For those who doubted before that human life sprang from primordial muck, please look closely at Kansans For Life. There you have it: primitive, virtually undeveloped humans, still wallowing in the muck.
5Someone watched Dark Angel and thought it was a documentary?
6Is this what they call displacement, where the psychiatric patients accuse others of their own deepest and darkest?
7Time to lock up the loonies in the KFL.
There actually is (early) research involving chimeras going on (inter-species organisms with genes/DNA from more than one specie).
As Elizabeth stated (a bit optimistically so far), the goal is to grow body parts (probably in piggies) for individual humans who need them, like transplant recipients.
Should be a no-brainer for Kansans…just think, even these people could actually get a fully functioning brain; someday, if.
It does have some complicated, legitimate downsides, beyond for the pig.
8There are other, frightening ways this stuff could go…in the wrong hands. Really start to worry when schoolkids get the tech at home, heh.
It is worth worrying about, there are lots of biomedical ethics types who have been wrestling with this issue. It’s an old concept, recently in reach.
But just blindly howling about ‘Dog’s Plan’ or whatever ain’t the right way.
I have bovine bone tissue in my face where my oral surgeon reconstructed maxillar recission.
My Mom and one of her friends at her church each have a bovine replacement heart valve. Sometimes they “moo” at each other when they meet. Extended their lives by about a decade, I think.
9I meant “inter-species” mammalians above of course. Lower forms have been done for years (plants, etc).
10Too many people sneaking up behind farm animals out there in Kansas.
11Now hold it just a goldarn minnit! They’re in favor of forced birth of humans AND in favor of discriminating against the birth of centaurs? Satyrs? Minotaurs?
Hypocrites.
I’m about ready to sic my friend Medusa on them. Who’s with me? After all, being turned to stone could only be an improvement.
12PSS: George Pee below looks like a Chupacabra, don’t he?
13Joel Hanes, I am also a bovine hybrid and my mitral valve moos hello too.
14@ Sandridge:
15I think you’re onto something. Look at the bottom right photo on this site:

The resemblance is striking.
Why stop at asking candidates about the creation of human-animal hybrids? Let’s take it a step further and find out where the candidates stand on human-animal hybrid abortion should a pregnancy accidentally occur? Don’t forget, it’s half human, so there’s the sanctity of half a life. And if brought to term, what about human-animal food stamps? They should qualify for at least 50% eligibility for the human half right? Then on to serious questions like whether human-goat & sheep-human marriage should be allowed?
There’s so much to think about in Kansas.
16Human-animal hybrids could explain a lot about the snacilbupeR. But that’s insulting to the animals.
17If the people in question are WingNuts then any animal hybridization could only be an improvement.
Except for Ted Cruz.
And Governor Rick Scott.
18” Really start to worry when schoolkids get the tech at home, heh.”
think, “Weird Science”.
19Already been done. Anybody look at Senator Mitch McConnell lately?
20@ LynnN:
21Medusa obviously already got to Rick Scott. Or some snaky creature did.
Bananas for the win!
22McTurtle indeed. Sleazy SOB, may he soon have an expedited, wait and delay free trip to the Ninth Circle of He!!.
A chimera can happen when one twin in utero involutes and its chemistry gets mixed to a certain degree with the surviving twin. A cheek swab from such a person will reveal DNA different from swabbing done elsewhere. There may even be some physical evidence of the melding, usually discreet in nature and visible only under a special lamp. In short, “they” have been among us a helluva long time. And time now for KFL and other wing nut heads to explode!
23Here is a curious perk for Jayhawks BB coach, Bill Self- he is the highest paid state of Kansas employee and pays no-zero,nada, zip, zilch state income taxes thanks to Brownback’s trickle up economics that has bankrupted the state.
