In a developing story, the Daily Mail is now reporting that the very first (admitted) group of genetically modified babies have been ‘created’ in the United States. The scientists involved reportedly announced the result on the night of June 27th, stating that 30 babies were born using genetic modification techniques. Furthermore, 2 of the babies tested were found to contain genes from a total of 3 different parents. The experiment also lasted over 3 years or more according to the researchers, which may be one of many.

The ‘GM babies’ were born into women who had trouble conceiving their own children. In order to ‘birth’ the babies, extra genes from a female donor were inserted into the women’s eggs before they were fertilized. After conception, scientists fingerprinted 2 of the one-year-old children and confirmed that they inherited DNA from 3 adults — one man and 2 women. What this means is that due to inheriting these extra genes through the genetic modification process, they will now be able to pass them along to their offspring. In other words, these genetically modified babies — if allowed to mate with non-GM humans — could potentially alter the very genetic coding of generations to come.

oh

[(Cole)]

Big step for science.

[Rated R]

Oh wow that's really interesting.

[NewRihannaStan]

very interesting

[WIG-SNATCHER]

I am intrigued yet also scared

[UnusualBoy]

I just wonder when the human beings will stop playing to be God

[Midnight]

I find this incredible.

‘GM babies’

I thought General Motors were involved for a second until I remembered "genetically modified."

[shanners]

Now can they do that with two sperm cells and one egg for me and my future husband's flawless children.........

Humans are creators of all types. Don't see what is wrong with using what we are given.

[funnychick]

Interesting. I'm kind of frightened at the possibilities though.

I'm sure it's mostly religious people who would be against this but I also don't like the sounds of this at all.

We were talking about this in my molecular biology group, and think this could be possible, but very expensive and difficult

[ThatsTheTea]

Wow

The media is doing a very good at breeding a generation of sheep, having ya'll believe that every scientific "acheivement" is somehow advantageous to the common people.

The fact that some of you are actually naive enough to believe this is not most likely a recipe for disaster ....Ch....ya'll wait until what's coming.

[Callum]

pretty cool

[Jabril]

This is really interesting but it's kind of scary how far science has come.

[Crazy Lights]

Wow, this is very interesting.
