Dunno, have any of the Popes ever built an evil robot? How about honoring a dead wife by changing their name to hers and traveling around the world in clothing meant to look like hers?

all i know is a scientist based belief structure seems more benign then a religious obsessed group that has choked the planet killed millions hordes wealth... hypocrisy of popes who have sex with their nieces and relatives steal from the treasury etc etc..

i mean how dangerous malevolent can a scientist really get?

Creation Of Life No Longer Domain Of God

I wonder what the results unforeseen will be.

All the results are unforeseen. We don't know just what this can do yet.

a bacteria that will make the black plague look like the common cold when it escapes into the environment ..

What was the vision which propelled this effort? What are they shooting for? Or was this more a wtf let's try it sort of thing? Those are the best.

They were shooting for means of creating genomes in Bacteria. They got one. As far as consequences go, this was definitely foreseen.

Their immediate goal was almost certainly to see if we have, right now, the technology to build DNA from scratch. The answer to that was clearly yes, we do.

Lack of knowledge about exactly how DNA works will probably make this a curiosity in the short term (5 to 10 years). Shortly after that we are likely to see designer bacteria for many purposes.

Long term this is proof of concept for being able to make life forms of whatever kind we want.

Yeah, Hank Pym there's a model of scientific responsibilty.

If Pym is really going to be played by Nathan Fillion I'd follow him anywhere!!!

Just create an organism that eats oil to survive... it will dissolve the spill, then it will die off when there's no more and thus has it's food source gone.
These bacterias already exist.

There are bacteria capable of most anything. Doesn't mean they do it efficiently enough to be useful.

But I think these are, wait I'll have to dig out one of my magazines.

If they were, we wouldn't be having a problem now.

pff.. that isnt creating life they used things that were already around.. if they really wanna come close to being god they need to do it out of nothing at the very least start with atoms to manipulate matter into a chemical 😇

If we would solve all problems directly with the best solution we wouldn't have a problem in the first place.

If something can't be used directly, than it usually isn't the best solution...
