    just wait til this tech hits the household, and droves of people download and compile organisms that will, say, secrete opiates or blow you, or both. #syntheticbiology

    Clearly the only way to resolve the science vs. religion/conservatism argument is to create an army of cloned Jesus... Jesuses... Jesi? Finally, we will all be united by this most holy of blasphemies. #syntheticbiology

    If you're on this site you probably agree with 95-100% of what Specter is talking about.

    Why people try to hinder any kind of progress is beyond me. Instead of the old "If it ain't broke" mentality....we should always be thinking..."How can we make this better" Everything has room for improvement! #syntheticbiology

    I don't think it matters if the research is could lead to the "Worst Case scenario", like Mr. Specter says, someone somewhere will be doing it so it might as well be us. #syntheticbiology
