If they can implement this with any degree of regularity, what a wonderful thing. Organs invaded by cancer could be replaced in total, with little to no risk of rejection. Perhaps even the replacement of lost limbs with natural ones.

I disagree. This isn't the same as growing an ear on the back of a rodent. This is creating a human life for the sole purpose of destroying it to prolong another. It's scientific vampirism.

I'm all for using science to prolong life. However, I also believe there is a line where in the process of trying to save life you trivialize it. I believe that this crosses that line.

The same could then be said for farming. One harvesting the wheat as a matter of genocide. A human, bereft of thought, is no more different than any other organisim we kill in our interest. The life itself would be entirely vestigal. It would be a machine of flesh. We even stoop to call those in comas "vegetables". To grow a humanoid, as it would not qualify as a human, would hae phenotipic expressions much akin to our own. The compatiblity would be engineered and a wonderous reasource.

But it would not be human would it? It lacks a head, and therefore thought. It might as well count as still born as it could not survive on its own. It is but a plant, just a very useful one.

The first CS name i used was "Master of Puppets"

It's sad to think Metallica still thinks they were as good as they were 8+ years ago..
