Is The Island of Dr. Moreau a Reality?

In 1896, H. G. Wells wrote the novel, The Island of Dr. Moreau about a shipwrecked man rescued by a passing boat who is left on the island home of Doctor Moreau, who creates sentient beings from animals via vivisection. 100 years later it was made into a movie. 10 years later, it's become a reality.  This man obviously possessed an amazing sense of things to come, because almost 120 years later, it is certain that the island in Wells imagination, if it doesn't exist already, will exist in the near future.

In 2009, reuters asked the following questions in an article entitled, Scientists want debate on animals with human genes.

"A mouse that can speak? A monkey with Down's Syndrome? Dogs with human hands or feet? British scientists want to know if such experiments are acceptable, or if they go too far in the name of medical research.
Two years later, The Academy of Medical Sciences is calling for an international regulatory commission to oversee the creations they call Animals Containing Human Material (ACHM). Included within the ACHM classification are non-human primates (NHP). In other words, human-hybrids.

This report claims that "such approaches are long established" and that "thousands of different ACHM been used in biomedical research."  Furthermore, they claim, ACHM are used to study human biological functions or disease that cannot be accurately modeled; where experiments using humans are considered infeasible or considered unethical; and where modification of an animal's body makes it more closely represent that of a human."  The report concludes that the majority of ACHM research does not pose ethical or regulatory difficulties, but identifies 3 areas that will need careful oversight in future:
  • Modification of an animal’s brain which might lead to human-like cognition;
  • Changing an animal so it has human appearance or characteristics (e.g. skin, facial or limb features, speech); and the
  • Development of human-derived sperm or eggs in an animal (especially if fertilization may occur).
The day after this study was published,  the Daily Mail reported on two of the tens of thousands of laboratories around the world conducting these types of experiments in secret.
"Scientists in British labs have created over 150 human-animal hybrid embryos in the past three years, which has caused concern that led to a call for major oversight from the Academy of Medical Sciences over animals containing human materials (ACHM).
Justifying these experiments with "cures for everything" is at the very least, disingenuous, when not only hasn't there been cures for anything in the last century, the rate of disease has increased 4000%. More than likely, the reason has much more to do with engineering the super soldier.

DARPA has millions of dollars allocated toward editing the DNA of our soldiers on the battlefield. From Darpa’s Lab-Grown Blood to turning humans into batteries to bullet-proof skin created using "goat's milk packed with spider-silk proteins, according to news reports. Their hope is that they can eventually replace the keratin in human skin -- which makes it tough -- with the spider-silk proteins."  Well, it just so happens that scientists are discovering a plausible explanation for the clinical and microscopic findings in Morgellons disease is connected to the hyper production of keratin.  Could it be that Morgellons is the result of the pentagon's endeavor to make human skin bullet-proof? Can you imagine what will happen should they re-engineer human skin  using genes from goats and spiders?  Why not? In 2010, DARPA invested over $6 million in order to create “synthetic organismsthat can live forever — or can be killed with the flick of a molecular switch.

From Timenolonger:
Julian Huxley, brother of Aldous who authored Brave New World, first used this word: Transhumanism. Huxley was a member of the British Eugenics Society, eugenics being the foundation of Transhumanism.

Eugenics is a science dedicated to a Darwinist philosophy applied to humanity, that the strong should thrive and evolve, while the weak are culled and eradicated.

Eugenics rests on a necessity of there being superior and inferior genetic pools in the human population. It might be very socially unacceptable to speak publicly of there being some races, ethnic or cultural groups who are inferior to the rest, yet in secrecy this is exactly what elite Eugenicists believe.

The public is guided to love the idea of Transhumanism by being persuaded that it is not a goal attached to race or ethnicity, but simply a means of bettering all of humanity. This is quite untrue.

Elite Transhumanists have no desire to “evolve” all humankind, their goal is one which seeks to advance only their own bloodlines and to leave the rest in disadvantage to them so that these unfortunate ones have no choice but to become their slaves, their lab animals and their labor force.
“The lowest strata are reproducing too fast. Therefore… they must not have too easy access to relief or hospital treatment lest the removal of the last check on natural selection should make it too easy for children to be produced or to survive; long unemployment should be a ground for sterilisation.” - Julian Huxley
The elite, as they are wrongly called, are blood relations of one another, descending from the hybrid tyrants who ruled in result of this same Transhumanist philosophy pre-flood.

Post Humanity: Unlimited Supply of Humans in Labs.

Scientists will soon be able to create an unlimited supply of humans in the lab.  We already know stem cells can differentiate into any cell, potentially replacing neurons, islet cells, kidney cells and more. However, now, lab-grown egg cells could revolutionize fertility - and even banish menopause. That's right. The The first human egg cells that have been grown entirely in the laboratory from stem cells could be fertilized later this year.

The first human eggs grown from human stem cells could be fertilized with human sperm cells later this year, potentially adding one more peg in the ladder toward reproduction sans human interaction. In this case it would entirely bypass a woman's donation of her eggs. But it could also turn stem cells into an infinite loop, of egg cells into embryos into stem cells, and on and on, in a fractal-like repetition of reproduction.
So, that means they are going to create a human being, right? Okay, for some, a zygote, or embryo. What will they do with this "being" after they create it? Well, I believe the plan is to either freeze it or destroy it. And for what? Menopause is part of the natural cycle. Women cannot have children after a certain age, and for good reason.

Rat Genes in Lettuce and Moth Genes in Apples...These Are a Few of My Favorite Things.

In May, 2002, National Geographic magazine reported on the "brave new world of genetic engineering." In the article, plant biochemist, Dean DellaPenna, envisioned fruits and vegetables delivering vaccines and "vegetable so loaded with therapeutic ingredients that doctors 'prescribe' them for patients". At the time of this article, scientists were working on an "apple that could vaccinate children against a virus that is the leading cause of childhood pneumonia". And, another group of scientists were inserting "genes into cows and sheep so that the animals will produce pharmaceuticals in their milk".

So, what's the big deal? Well, for the first time in history, scientists are using irradiation and mutagenic chemicals to transfer genes between species that are not related at all.  For instance, they can - and have - take  a gene from a rat and implant  it into lettuce...or moth genes into apples...or spider genes into goat's milk...or salmon genes into tomatoes...or the genes of moths and bees into potatoes...or silkworms into grapes...These are a few of my favorite things!

Some crops are engineered to make their own insecticide that is said to be lethal to insects, but harmless to humans.  Really? How did they discover that this is the case in such a short period of time?  
The general population is, mostly, unaware that they've been eating genetically modified foods since the mid-1990s. As of 2002, 60% of all processed foods on US supermarket shelves contained ingredients from engineered foods. Nine years later, that percentage is close to 100%!

Fast forward fifteen years, and amidst the strange devastating weather patterns that are beginning to take hold,  strange new diseases are developing, and the number of people diagnosed with established medical conditions, such as diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Autism, just to name a few, are exploding.  
In the U.S. alone, 105 million people have Diabetes or prediabetes according to the CDC. By the year 2019,  Morningstar projects the Diabetes market, alone, will grow to over $55 billion! 
E-coli and E-coli 0157

Are scientists genetically modifying natural strains of bacteria into faster growing super-toxic E-coli strains? So, Novartis and Phizer can market new vaccines?

Back in the day, most strains of E-coli, were a harmless part of the normal flora of the gut. In fact, natural E-coli benefits the hosts by producing vitamin K2, and by preventing the establishment of pathogenic bacteria within the intestine. However, it was found that this bacterium is grown so easily, and its genetics so simple and easily manipulated or duplicated through a process of metagenics, that it's one of the most important species used in genetic engineering.

Analysis of the genome sequence of the strain of E. coli responsible for the deadly outbreak in Germany revealed that it is "an entirely new super-toxic E. coli strain."  As e-coli is to biowarfare as peanut butter is to jelly, it's not so farfetched to wonder if this could be a mutated, developed killer bacteria, created in a lab.

Whatever the cause, the outcome is predictable. More laws and regulations. More genetic engineering. More vaccines. More pharmaceuticals. And most of all, more profit for the pharmaceutical and agriculture industry, and the military industrial complex.
