    The big question of the hour is pretty obvious: it`s the question we`ve been asking every scientist from Galileo to Oppenheimer, from Frankenstein to Moreau. Do I feel like we at SybmoGen are trying to play God? Well, there`s a reason that two of the scientists I just named don`t really exist. I think that mankind is constantly trying to play God: I would argue that playing God is exactly what God, if He exists, would want us to do. He didn`t create thinking creatures with the intent that we would never think. That would be silly. He didn`t create creatures that were capable of manipulating and remaking our environment with the intent that we would sit idle and never create anything. That would be a waste. If God exists -- and I am reserving my final opinion on the matter until I die and meet Him -- then He is a scientist, and by creating man, he was playing at being me for a little while. So I can`t imagine He would mind if I wanted to try putting the shoe on the other foot, can you?
