How arrogant, presumptious, and smug are these created beings?

They are also trying to bring back neanderthals. What's the problem?

No. Scientists think they are scientists. Duh.

What's wrong with bringing some creatures back from extinction? Especially when it was humans that caused the extinction.

Scientists don't think they are God. Damn

Funny how science is roundly condemned for "playing God" when, for example, trying to bring back a species from extinction, but blood transfusions? Ventilators? Corneal transplants? Using defibrilators?

For some reasons, those things aren't "playing God". How utterly nonsensical.

Of course, utterly nonsensical spewings are what come with embracing a world-view that makes absolutely no coherent sense whatsoever...

I think perhaps you might need a little more protein in your diet.

What's the problem? On the neanderthals specifically where are these people to be kept when they get older if they have an IQ of 60?

As far as the rest go we already have enormous problems with invasive species that exist, do we need to potentially add more to the mix? The Jurassic Park tale is not really what I'm referring too here but insects or even small animals that may have the potential to destroy the food chain.
