This article says that scientists are planning to synthesize a complete human genome out of synthetic DNA. They had a secret invitation-only meeting, and are trying to raise $100 million to do it.
George Church, a professor of genetics, said the project was not aimed at creating people.
Of course they say it `s to help people and to cure diseases etc, but obviously anyone can see where this is going to end up - someone will patent it and there will be designer babies, designer "humans", and people will be obsolete, except of course them.
One comment was "will the baby have a belly button?" lol. But will they bother with babies? Or even women?
