Scientists Give Human Organs to Lamb

TK Interior writes "Myrtle Beach Online reports the existence of a lamb-human chimera-- a blend of two different species. Not only has a lamb been given a human liver and heart, but mice are sporting human brain cells. At what level is a chimera 'too' human? Where do you draw the line between human and animal? How will this affect evolution?"

No, because my mother is a human with humanity, while my snot is human but with no humane characteristics.

Your snot is human? Sorry man, but this is ridiculous.

I really don't think it is easy to make one sweeping definition of what is human. Organisms classified as Homo sapiens are human, but last I checked you can't go out to the store and buy a H. sapiens membership test in the drug store.

To assert that your dead skin cells are human since they are made up of the same genetic material as you is just as silly. If I gather piles of skin cells from a million people over a year and build a skin-cell mountain, is that a human? Of course not! It shares genetic material with humans but so do monkeys, bananas and just about every living thing on this planet.
