New Federal Guidelines Will Allow Creation of Human-Animals Chimeras

quote[A new set of guidelines for human embryonic stem cell research issued Monday by the National Academies of Sciences would permit the creation of human-animal hybrids, but would not allow them to breed. The guidelines permit the introduction of human embryonic stem cells into nonhuman mammals, "under circumstances where no other experiment can provide the information needed."]

I'm generally all for stem cell research, but this seems to be crossing the line a bit to much for me.
