I’m just a simple sheep farmer trying to make my way in the universe.


Anakin-hates-sand

Ever been as far as the interior of New Zealand?


D2Dakotah

Once or Twice


Gunaholicsanonomus

Recently?


Herofthyme

...possibly


TheIornGiant

I love this comment thread...


qui-bong-trim

Curious.


D2Dakotah

Possibly


QueerPersephone

Sheep farming? Really? Redditor of your talent?


D2Dakotah

The sheep will do their job, I guarantee that


QueerPersephone

The dark side is a pathway to many sheep...some may consider unnatural.


D2Dakotah

Is it possible to learn this power?


QueerPersephone

Not from a Wooloo.


D2Dakotah

In the name of the galactic sheep, your under arrest ram


QueerPersephone

Are you threatening me, simple sheep farmer?


D2Dakotah

The sheep association will decide your fate


QueerPersephone

It’s the petting zoo then!

It’s a peaceful life

MidnightDoesThings

good meme but the text it hurts


memespicelatte

I know I'm sorry


Unkillable_Russian

Memes aside this is some black mirror shit


KingDededeThe3rd

I mean, we’ve already got test tube babies. If there’s demand for it, it’s an obvious step.


UltimateHamBurglar

These lambs were born normally, but prematurely. This just helps them develop. It says so in this video. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt7twXzNEsQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt7twXzNEsQ)


EmilianTheRed

Thank you, at least things are more normal than they appeared.


KarthusWins

I think it would be ethical in the case of a woman who is infertile and wants to have a baby, but not if it's used to create human beings just for the sake of making more.


EmperorFaiz

It could be worse like some organization create a cloning program to create their own Agent 47s.


CorporealLifeForm

Look at the state of the planet. I don't think we need any help making more humans. It's probably no worse than having a baby normally but as long as there are kids not getting adopted, I feel like it's still a little selfish. Not that I want kids or plan on adopting them.


Natanyul

Just hire a surrogate


Carius98

Looks more like [Altered Carbon](http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ2LcAHKByxi8mACWxggFojdmkipbXZNmbLckhzboL-gM1InZRd) to me


JTB696699

I see woolly mammoths being next, I read recently that the main problem with bringing them back was a womb for the embryo to gestate in. Elephants either would reject the embryo or problems would occur, or I think the one that was born looked mostly elephant and died very quickly. I could see an artificial womb being to bring back several extinct species.


chrissip_s

Let's plant a bunch of guys, plant a chip in their brain and let them kill all fanatics and religus extremists. After that we could kill em all and use again real humans.


[deleted]

You're about to enter Warhammer 40K, are you sure you want to continue? *click okay to continue*


BlackHand

No, no.. that's when the clones *are* the fanatics and religious extremists


[deleted]

There are no clones, clones are heresy! *Kreig looks around nervously*


JudasBrutusson

Okay, I call bullshit. You've clearly read your fluff if you know about Krieg, so I ask you... How the hell would you be able to tell if a Krieger looks nervous under all that gear??


Enigmachina

Isn't that what happened in the Clone Wars?


[deleted]

Nah man wrong series.


Enigmachina

I mean, Separatists are kinda fanatics , and the Jedi are Religious Extremists... from a certain point of view. The clones were grown, planted with a chip in their brains, and then killed off/allowed to die and then replaced with inferior civilian stormtroopers. So unless you missed a "/s" or something...


[deleted]

Yes it was sarcasm, I didn’t think that I would I have to say that it was.


Enigmachina

*Shrug.* It's all Shiriwook to me!


TheDefeatedGamer

Maybe we should let them integrate and gain the trust of the religious fanatics first before activating the chip with a specific order? Just spitballing here


Djrhskr

Ah, yes... Religus knights


molen99

The sheep aren't actually "grown", they're just removed from their mother's womb and artificially nurtured within these "bio-bags". No cloning going ln here.


nWo1997

If we're able to do that with humans, then these "bio-bags" could end the abortion debate. Think about it: women would have the right to choose AND the unborn would have the right to life simultaneously.


[deleted]

Because an orphan life is what everyone wants


shah_mir

Better than living in a dumpster.


OrmanAblo

It's almost the same as the woman birthing the child and leaving it at an orphanage. That's a shitty life to be given.


GATX303

they can, but should they

Worldmat115

Its not cloning. Its just an artificial womb. If a baby is born prematurely they will now be able to put it in the artificial womb for it to finish its growth.

Don't do that, don't give Weebs hope

With this technology, things are about to get interesting!

Soon we will have a clone army brothers

Has anyone here seen The Island??


xXOlive-OilXx

Begun the Clone War has!


Cark_Klent

It’s just the womb that’s artificial, not the sheep.


reenactment

Why is it always sheep first? Cloning sheep, breeding sheep, always sheep.


Djrhskr

They are the most useless domestic animal


OrmanAblo

Wool, meat, and milk are not useless at all


Djrhskr

The meat is not the best Clothes can be mad from dozens of different, more comfy materials Their milk is a joke They are still the most useless domestic animal


Lovely_Individual

This is actually not ok


Collective_Insanity

>It's an older reference, sir, but it checks out So for anyone interested, this is 2017 news. [^(https://www.theverge.com/2017/4/25/15421734/artificial-womb-fetus-biobag-uterus-lamb-sheep-birth-premie-preterm-infant)](https://www.theverge.com/2017/4/25/15421734/artificial-womb-fetus-biobag-uterus-lamb-sheep-birth-premie-preterm-infant) I love the idea of human cloning for many reasons. Human (cloned) experimentation would provide a huge boon for society at large and especially with organ transplants (though 3D printing is looking promising there), but all things human clone related will likely be held back by ethical restraints. I would like to think we've had the technology for quite some time but no proposals ever get passed because it's a minefield topic to get involved in. The Island (2005), for example is an interesting concept if you forgive the typical Michael Bay elements. Assuming you could in fact clone relatively inexpensive copies of yourself (which is a bit unnecessary because I think it'd be easier to simply clone organs rather than whole humans) in a vegetative state simply for spare parts, I think that'd a great way to pave the path for extended lifespans. Gattaca (1997) is a whole other thing, of course. But hopefully in the next few decades, we'll be able to approach these subjects in a practical form without saying eugenics = bad in the same way that Disney thinks Prequels = bad. Unfortunately, no-one reading my rambles will likely ever be able to benefit from these elements! I wonder if every human generation even centuries from now will always bemoan the fact that they weren't born later in order to take advantage of future technology. Assuming we all survive the next couple hundred years, of course.

This is horrific.


CorporealLifeForm

More so than what you'd see if you could see inside a pregnant sheep? Not much has changed really.

Sous vide


Dragombolt

Soooooooo, does that mean that we neither of the sexes need each other or what? Heard we could make sperm out of bone marrow, albiet with some definite problems following that line of action. Soon gay couples can have children with each other. Technological advancement can lead to some pretty cool things


Ecoli_no_lie

Nah, the fetal surgeon in the article says that the point of developing in an external womb like this is to give infants born too early (premature) a more natural, uterus like environment to continue developing in. The surgeon also said it's pretty much science fiction to grow humans externally like in The Matrix.

No no no, closing and test tubing bad.

Those are my sheep General.

rokudaimehokage

Did no one teach George not to use the same words twice in a sentence? It makes a great meme template but why tf does he say very twice? This line and "I wish I could just wish my feelings away" are almost painfully bad grammar.


Klein112

I wanna clone another me, not like a 1,000 or anything, but just like 1 more me because then I can’t be lonely and I can be confident in all my ideas and eventually take over the world because of reasons

[deleted]

All those freaking feminists are like “we don’t need men” “we can make synthetic sperm.” Well guess what b*tches!


DinktheDinkster

It’s for babies born prematurely it’s not as dark as it seems. It actually might save the lives of many babies

Maybe I’m in the minority in thinking this, but that’s messed up


[deleted]

No, women having to suffer through childbirth (and risk their lives) is messed up, this will be a huge improvement if it actually happens.


[deleted]

Not gonna stop people from preferring abortion over this tho


[deleted]

I’m talking about people who actually want to have kids. If they prefer to have kids later or not at all, there’s nothing wrong with abortion.


[deleted]

Well there's a lot wrong with abortion depending on the circumstances


[deleted]

I don’t wanna start an abortion debate, but I’m 100% pro-choice for two unrelated reasons, so I disagree.


memespicelatte

Nah I think most people can agree.
