How can this person even start to begin to consider what would be moral or immoral for the ENTIRE human race (well, at least those scientists near the US)? What moral system can possibly include everyone? "Human" morality? WTF?

ARRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

One day we can use his hybrids to create a super race of humans to destroy the earth, then it will be all his fault! Muwahaha!
