This is no more tampering with creation than is hydroponics.

hydroponics? i don't understand. Or I am just thinking literally about the art of growing a plant without soil... Thanks for the reply by the way.

what do you call it anyway?

The problem is your use of 'creation'. It suggests a creator.

 

And what is the news here?

What is wrong with the use of "creation"? Are you saying that a mouse is not a creation?

 

Maybe for you it is not a news but its an interesting topic i feel like posting. :)

Like I said, the word is usually associated with a 'creator' like a god. Your title 'Tampering with creation' is just loaded.

Mouse is an evolved lifeform, not created. Calling it a creation implies a creator.

 

I'd say that we have tempered far far more in other ways, building houses and roads, selectively breeding animals, cutting down forests over almost all of Europe!

The scientist who grew a human ear at the back of a mouse has suggested it may one day be possible to grow a liver.

Part of "creation" (whether it be created by a God, the big bang or the spaghetti monster) is mankind; and mankind does that sort of thing.

So the mouse with an ear on its back is a part of creation.

Preventing that sort of thing would be "tampering with creation" just as much as allowing it would be.

 

So what was your point?
