Prior to the discovery of DNA and genetic engineering, no human-animal hybrids existed. As a result, not a single legal, moral or religious code developed since the beginning of time has dealt with human-animal hybrids, not a single one. When scientists created the first human-animal hybrids - by introducing human genes into mouse embryos some years ago - they discontinued the existing classification system; they did not call their creations "human-animal hybrids" or even "hybrids." They announced their crafted monsters to the world as "transgenic animals."
This of view of the scientists. For one thing, they applied their euphemism of "transgenic animals" to all creatures whose DNA came from two different species, without bothering to distinguish between phone number list human-animal hybrids and hybrids whose DNA came from two different animals. And why not? To many scientists, humans are just another species of animal. No kidding, that's really how they think. Armed with this deceitful euphemism they could speak of their experiments without having to admit every time they opened their mouths that they were creating human-animal hybrids, an admission that might give the public pause.
I have seen entire newspaper and magazine articles that discussed some particular "transgenic animal' at length without ever mentioning that some of the DNA used to create the abomination came from a human. The press, to their great discredit, have gone along with this euphemism, almost never referring to these creations as human-animal hybrids, or even revealing in many cases that the genetic makeup of these creatures is part human, which would at least imply to the reading public that these creations are anything other than ordinary animals.
euphemistic abomination accomplished much from the point
