Is this science-fiction? No, these plant-animal hybirds already exist today and may soon be on your supermarket shelves without any special labelling to warn you. Furthermore, in a few years the types of these genetically engineered "vegetables" are sure to increase and may very posssibly also include human genes. If you are a vegetarian, do you want to be in the position of inadvertently eating vegetables that are part meat? Even if you are not a vegetarian, are you ready to become a cannibal and eat foods that are part human being?engWith permission of the license/copyright holderGeneticVegRegulationReligious ethicsSpirituality and ethicsMethods of ethicsTheological ethicsPhilosophical ethicsComparative religion and interreligious dialogueArticle
