Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

This is one of the many reasons why we need to pray for mercy.

“Newcastle University in England, has created a world first human-cow embryos. Could someone explain to me why this is necessary? I know, I know stem cell research.

It is being hailed by the scientific community, but labelled “monstrous” by those who oppose it. Injecting human DNA into eggs from cows’ ovaries, a team has grown hybrid embryos. The embryos survived for three days. This is being done to provide a limitless supply of stem cells for those awful diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and spinal cord injuries in order to overcome a worldwide shortage of human embryos.”-Trendhunter news LINK to full story.

It never ceases to amaze me the depths of debauchery humankind will stoop to in the name of science.

I love Australia and its people. I have belonged to online Australian communities and one of the nicest ladies I know visits my blog from time to time and I hers. When I read, however, that Santa’s in Sydney have been instructed not to say, ‘ho, ho, ho’ because the ebonic plague has reached their shores, I just shook my head.

“Santas in Australia’s largest city have been told not to use Father Christmas’s traditional “ho ho ho” greeting because it may be offensive to women, it was reported Thursday. Sydney’s Santa Clauses have instead been instructed to say “ha ha ha” instead, the Daily Telegraph reported. One disgruntled Santa told the newspaper a recruitment firm warned him not to use “ho ho ho” because it could frighten children and was too close to “ho”, a US slang term for prostitute.” (news.yahoo)

So, sarcastic kudos go to the person who made up this rule while choking down a giant p.c. pill, kudos also to those who came up with this term in the first place, poisoning our language with yet another derogatory, and inflammatory word. As if we didn’t have enough of them already. I know it’s been around for a while but that’s how things are sometimes, easier to introduce than they are to get rid of.
