It’s afterwards, as I observe them, that the persuasion fades. First one animal trait, then another, creeps to the surface and stares out at me. But I will conquer yet! Each time I dip a living creature into the bath of burning pain, I say, “This time I will burn out all the animal; this time I will make a rational creature of my own!” After all, what is ten years? Men have been a hundred thousand in the making.--Dr Moreau, “The Mysterious Island Of Dr Moreau”<br /><br />Dolphinplasty is mankind's ancient temptation to "be as gods".<br /><br />Beware: you cannot make a beast rational, nor can you graft socialism onto liberty’s root-stock. You must give birth to a monstrosity which will, like Frankenstein, return to torment his maker. <br /><br />MALTHUSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
