Soon we will be able to bring back a neanderthal , we can do it without encroaching on cristain beliefs by using monkeys but does this person not have rights ( legaly it would not ) but there are greater questions than can we.

"Dolly The Sheep" and some other Animals were cloned. Then we don't know what goes on behind the Doors of some of those Labs. They are not exactly "Parading" the SR-71 Blackbird either. So when Government gets into "Research" any old Surprise is possible. If it ever happens,the Ethics just have to be worked out,like with any major Breakthrough in Science.
Imagine the trouble they will have if they bring dinosaurs back. Which unfortunately is looking more and more possible.
The other problem we have though is no matter what the general public think about the subject.....it is still going to happen, with or without closed doors.
The first thing that needs to be answered is "of what use is it" to bring it back. The answer, "because we can" just isn´t good enough... nor is "so we can study it".

No I don't believe that they should be doing all this 'just because technology now permits it', because we can, because 'they' are...or whatever other reason there is...but...
Unfortunately the problem will end out being bigger than any one country...and as usual there will be those that just blaze along doing their own thing.
Regrettably I can't see that bringing things back from extinction won't happen. I think it is inevitable.
If any one remembers the movie Battle For The Planet Of The Apes, just put in massed produced Neanderthals instead of the apes and chimps.... Bringing back the Neanderthals could solve many domestic problems for certain countries, especially those prone to high influxes of illegal immigrants pouring over the border looking for jobs. There won't be any menial jobs left as the newly domesticated Neanderthals would have them all, from maids, to gardeners, to field workers, to burger slingers. Anyone could own one or a few! Who in their right mind would dare fight for any 'rights' for Neanderthals!? There would be no National Advancement for Neanderthals, no civil rights movements....mass clonings of Neanderthals would solve everything, hell, if you got bored with yours, use it target practice and no schools would be needed for them! Advocacy groups are needed to help bring back sub-humans; we haven't enough around as it is now! The military would love to have larger neanderthal armies also! Ain't 'progress' and 'science' great!
I agree with all of the "no" answers. We need to stop meddling.
Btw, JB, here we keep bringing over exotic species of bugs to kill other bugs, and then we have nothing to take care of the new ones, so they become real pests. I agree, that also needs to stop.
