Genesis: "At the beginning God created the sky and the ground (...) that the ground produces alive animals each one according to its species. It says make the man with our image and ressemblance(...)". Blumenbach (naturalist of 18th) made fun of those which wanted to reduce all fauna from the animals collected on Noah's Ark: "I really do not see how the lazy one would have could make the pilgrimage of the Ararat Mount as far as South America. It takes him one hour to cross by crawling a distance of 1 meter 80". Wilhem His (chemist of 19th): "the fertilized egg contains the excitation necessary to the growth. This excitation contains all the genetic luggage as well paternal as maternal It is not a form which is transmitted, nor a particular material able to generate forms, but simply an excitation allowing to induce a generating growth of forms. Not characters themselves but the beginning of a uniform process of development ". Under his impulse its nephew F Miesher discovers the nucleic acid without measuring the range of it. Voltaire: "the race of the negros is a species of man different from ours, as the race of the spaniels is greyhounds". Jacques Monod: "Lyssenko showed the geneticists to support a theory radically incompatible with dialectic materialism, therefore necessarily distorts. In spite of the denials of the Russian geneticists, Lyssenko was right perfectly: the theory of gene like hereditary determinant invariant through generations, and even of hybridizations, is indeed completely irreconcilable with the dialectical principles ". (Cf Also Engels: the barley grain) July 20, 1974 (the USA): call of 10 scientists (of which Watson, the "father" of the ADN) to cease the genetic engineering. 1975 - Asilomar (the USA): 150 biologists of the whole world define the bases of a "ethics". Federal law of Edward Kennedy codifying genetic research. Jacques Testart (Geneticist): "Me enquiring in assisted procreation, I decided to stop. Not research for better doing than we make already: the treatment of the sterility, but that which is within reach, the genetic selection, which will involve a radical change of the human person. I assert a logic of the not-discovery, an ethics of not-research ". and to add: "I learned finally that one has illusions of clearness with, always, of the darknesses. And I am sure that there will be always. Then I prefer our darknesses with those of progress: they are close to our roots, they are human ". Creation of the national committee of Ethics (1983) Creation of the National Consultative Committee of Ethics for the Health and Life sciences (1990). Noëlle Lenoir (lawyer): (...)"article 1128 of the Civil code distinguishes the things from the people. A cow is a thing taking into consideration this article: one can buy it to consume his meat, his milk, to even make clothing. The person on the other hand is not in the trade ". Declaration of Jean-Paul II: "the man cannot make an attempt on the creation of God". Mendel (cleaned): In 1866 establishes, while working on the hybrids of peas, the statistics of the transmission of the hereditary features. Mutant imagery, Egyptian Gods, Minotaure, Fairy Mélusine (woman snake), Clip of Michael Jackson (Morphing), Man Jaguar, Spider Man... "All good science fiction must be initially of science and then of the fiction. More still, it must be in phase with the scientific paradigm dominating of its time. For the "Frankenstein" of Mary Shelley, this paradigm was electricity. For "Godzilla" it was the radioactivity and bends. For "Jurassic Park", it is biotechnology ". "Of tens of products resulting from the genetic engineering are already at the point and await only the official authorizations for débouler in the supermarkets: cheeses fermented using transgenic bacteria, giant trouts, producing colza of reduced oil, imputrescibles tomatos ". "the crime of Mr Cline": Dr. Martin Cline, UCLA, carry out the first genetic Clerc's Office on patients reached of thalassaemia in spite of prohibition officielle.(1980) For Wilson, would be genetically determined the family feeling, the endoctrination, the faith and even homosexuality. If there are genes of homosexuality how can he be transmitted since the homosexual ones do not have children? "Released from the constraints which represents the parental duties, the homosexual ones could help their nearest relatives and guarantee a greater survival to them". One introduced into the genome of the tobacco a gene taken in a chromosome of dog, and which causes to start the biosynthesis of gastric lipase. This enzyme, essential with digestion, is completely lacking with the victims of the mucoviscidose. 1995: A Suisse researcher creates a transgenic fly in 14 eyes. "the ecologist Jeremy Rifkin (the USA) left in war against the census human genes and the dangers the genetic engineering estimating that they threaten freedoms and are likely to lead to the eugenism, in other words the elimination of the individuals nonin conformity". Francis Crick (Nobel Prize of medicine): "No new born should be recognized human before to have passed a certain number of tests relating to its genetic equipment". Joshua Lederberg (also Nobel Prize of medicine): partisan of the "human cloning, effective means to produce higher individuals". Jacques Attali: "(the multi-media one) it is last physical technology before the next change, that of the genetics. The ultimate phantasm of the genetics is also to take shape oneself, to reproduce oneself. All our discussion on the multi-media one is only one process of childbirth of the genetic company of tomorrow ". The virtual man Genome project: world project of sequencing of the totality of the human genome (kind of dictionary of our genetic language). Walter Gilbert: "the sequencing of the totality of the human genome is Graal of the human genetics". and still: "the sequencing is the ultimate response to the command: Know yourself ". In is the USA the DOE, Ministry for Energy, installed in Los Alamos and working on the effects of radiations - especially genetic changes - one of the organizations "engine" of the project artificial life? Biological computer: Or the connection of an alive cell and a silicon chip. For the moment its lifespan is limited to two weeks. Peter Fromherz: "We study the possibility of connecting an important network of natural neurons with a processor equipped with 2000 transistors". Hugo de Garis (Enquiring at the department of the evolutionary systems of ATR with Kyoto): "the increasing complexity of these machines will make us appear foreign them and worrying. If I am with the source of the problem, I would like to be with the source of the solutions (if it there of a). I call these machines of the "artilects" (artificial intellect). I am very pessimistic on this subject. I think that this question will be with the source of a world war at the next century between those which will think that the men must remain the dominant species, and those which will want to entrust the management of our complex companies to machines more intelligent than us ".
