Just a few questions- Do you think it is a good idea to create human-animals only to take their livers? Would it be considered murder? Do you believe this is animal cruelty? uh,if u dont know about that ur a retard,i found out about it on discovery channel lol :lol:

News flash: Not everyone sits around in front of the TV.

this is the kind of stuff that makes me dislike biology
the fact that ppl do this stuff

Blame the scientist, not the science.
