It's a story right out of Michael Creighton's Jurassic Park. Scientists have recreated an extinct animal - the Dire Wolf. What could possibly go wrong?
A biotech company named Colossal Biosciences has "engineered" a pair of Dire Wolves (named Romulus and Remus) - an extinct species of wolf. They obtained its DNA from a tooth and skull fossil. And if that's not scary enough, they also created a female Dire wolf named Khaleesi. Soon they will be breeding them.
And scarier still (yes, it gets worse), the company's ultimate goal is to create an artificial "womb." For humans. 😳
This is Jurassic Park and The Matrix combined! It also reminds me of another story - in the Bible. The Tower of Babel.
"Then they said, 'Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves'." - Genesis 11:4
As a side note, the word 'babel' actually sounds like Hebrew for 'confused.' And we sure have become confused alright.
God is God, and we are not.
If we are God's temple, his Holy Spirit living in is, would an artificial womb qualify as an abomination to God? And would such an abomination lead to desolation?
"¹⁵So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), ¹⁶then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. ¹⁷Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, ¹⁸and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak. ¹⁹And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! ²⁰Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. ²¹For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be." - Daniel 11:15-21
We have become Babylon.
"And the LORD God said, “The man has now become like one of us." - Genesis 3:22
