From the Daily Mail UK:
New spectre of cloned babies: Scientists create embryos in lab that ‘could grow to full term’
The prospect of cloned babies has moved a step closer after scientists extracted stem cells from human embryos created in a laboratory.
The breakthrough could lead to customised cells to help treat and even cure a range of diseases, from Alzheimer’s to multiple sclerosis.
However, it also raises the spectre of babies being cloned in laboratories…
While human embryos have been cloned before, none have had healthy stem cells extracted from them. The latest advance means scientists are now even closer to being able to clone children.
The US team behind the work stress that they want to find treatments for incurable diseases – but critics fear there is little to stop a rogue scientist from copying their work to try to clone humans.
Dr David King, founder of the campaign group Human Genetics Alert, called for an international ban on human cloning and said it was ‘irresponsible in the extreme’ to have published details of the stem-cell technique.
The world first was achieved at Oregon Health and Science University, with a technique similar to the one used to clone Dolly the sheep…
Josephine Quintavalle, of campaign group Comment on Reproductive Ethics, questioned the need for the research, given that another, more simple way of making customised stem cells already exists.
She said: ‘The suspicion has to be that the real interest is not stem cell therapy per se, given that other uncontroversial approaches are already so successful. Let’s hope that the goal is not out and out reproductive cloning.’ …
…Dr King warned: ‘Scientists have finally delivered the baby that would-be human cloners have been waiting for: a method for reliably creating cloned human embryos.
‘This makes it imperative that we create an international ban on human cloning before any more research like this takes place.
‘It is irresponsible in the extreme to have published this research.’
From the Age:
Pope Francis has denounced the global financial system, blasting the “cult of money” that he says is tyrannising the poor and turning humans into expendable consumer goods.
More correctly, the debt-at-usury “money” system — the 500 year rise of which can largely be blamed directly on failings of the ‘Church’ — turns human beings into milking cows.
Debt slaves.
Human cattle.
To be grown in number. Herded. Kept docile.
And milked, throughout their working lives.
Or — to use The Matrix’ parable — the usurious “money” system turns human beings into batteries.
To be slowly, steadily drained of their energy; used as fuel, for The Machines.
Once you understand what “makes the world go ’round” … and more importantly, how, and why … these latest scientific “developments” come as no surprise.

Human cattle????
Have a close look at society: who controls financial entities, who controls both sides of politics and whose interests are always served.
And then look at how ordinary people are sacrificed for ‘the greater good’: Nuclear clean-ups, asbestos mining in Australia (past), wars of all manner, etc. Don’t get me going!!
So you don’t think that people are cattle? Really?
Thank you for bringing this research to our attention.
Selfishness is at the root of most of society’s problems today, including the seemingly selfless decision to form the United Nations on 24 Oct 1945 out of fear and loathing that human knowledge of the source of energy that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki on 6 & 9 Aug 1945 might result in nuclear annihilation of the world.

Morning BI,
I think this article would be a great interest to you.
Queensland pensioner emerged from heart surgery to find bank had emptied account and given it to Federal Government
Nothing to worry about though, the government is looking after you silly. Just like Dracula looks after your donation at the blood bank

Thanks Richo … disgraceful, and yet, unsurprising. I’ll bet a lot more incidents like this will occur.
Slowly, the curtain is being pulled back on the modern-day Wizard of Oz.
