Researchers Use Fetal Cells To Create “Supermouse”

2 Timothy 3:1-8 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith.

Scientists have used the cells from aborted babies to create a mouse that has a brain that is “half human.”

“Researchers took the immature glial cells from donated human fetuses and injected them into mouse pups,” the New Scientist reports. “The cells developed into star-shaped glial cells known as astrocytes. 300,000 human cells were injected into each mouse, but 12 months later that number had increased to 12 million. The mouse’s own glial cells had been driven out by human astrocytes which are up to 20 times larger than those in mice.”

The scientists would not confirm that the tissue used came from aborted children.

The reports say that the “half human” mice showed significantly higher intelligence than their all mouse counterparts.

The scientists said they had considered using monkeys for the tests but stayed with mice “due to ethical concerns.”

  1. Re the mouse: O God, be merciful to us…all sinners. Being reminded of the experimentation that took
    place during the Third Reich in Germany, and realizing the enemy of our souls is delighting in every
    aberration… even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly.
