An alarm should be rung over the genetic manipulation of Creation -- a new, louder alarm -- as developments unfold from Canada through the Midwest of the U.S. and from coast to coast, not to mention other countries.

But let's start with Canada. As it says in a recent report: "The Canadian government is on the verge of approving the introduction of extremely bizarre genetically modified pigs into the Canadian food supply. These new mouse/pig hybrids have been dubbed 'enviropigs' and are being touted as being much better for the environment. This new 'breed' of Yorkshire pigs was created by scientists in Ontario at the University of Guelph, who spliced in genes from mice to decrease the amount of phosphorus produced in the pigs' excrement. So soon millions of Canadians will be eating meat from mouse/pig hybrid creatures and most of them will not even realize it."

Our scientists -- many benefiting from tax dollars -- are doing increasingly bizarre things. They are blending spider genes with those of goats to produce a protein in goat milk that can be extracted, purified, and spun into an incredibly strong fiber.

They are taking an enzyme that they dubbed "Luciferase" (yes, this is true, because it relates to light) from sea anemones or fireflies and inserting it in dogs and cats to make them bioluminescent -- able to glow under a black light (the excuse: so we can study their organs without dissecting them, or in the case of tobacco, which also has been modified (tobacco-firefly hybrids), to study genetic interactions (see here).

Some even want to create a hybrid that is half human and half chimp (a "humanzee"; we'll wait to see the excuse for that; one atheist said it should be done if for no other reason than to offend Christians).

Human brain cells in mice? Human genes in pigs -- to grow spare organs?

This is not the stuff of science fiction. Google it. You'll find it in major scientific journals. Want to read about luciferase? See here. Or here.

In Missouri, the Monsanto Corporation is cornering the market on seeds like corn and soy that have been genetically modified so they have built-in pesticides or can endure more of the chemicals used to treat crops against insects and weeds (chemicals manufactured by, yes, Monsanto, which previously gave us compounds such as PCBs and Agent Orange). Ring the alarm here.

Does it even relate to ancient prophecy?

In the apocryphal Book of Enoch -- which, as one website points out, is directly quoted by the Book of Jude in the New Testament -- it says "and they began to sin against birds, beasts, reptiles, and fish, to eat their flesh one after another, and to drink their blood" (7:14) before the Flood.

More to the point, perhaps, is the 3,000-year-old Book of Jasher --  another ancient history that's quoted in the Biblical books of Joshua and II Samuel.

Jasher 4:18 says that in the days of Noah "the sons of men in those days took from the cattle of the earth, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and taught the mixture of animals of one species with the other, in order therewith to provoke the Lord."

But is the Book of Jasher authentic? Many believe the version circulated in our day is a fake, or from the wrong source. For our discernment.

But still:

This is serious stuff -- O Canada, O Midwest, O Missouri and Iowa and the other places where the genetic crops are sprouting or the animals are mixed or where there are the laboratories!

Let us warn you as we warned before "Katrina" (see: Oh New Orleans, shed ye the darkness or face disaster ): disaster looms if we stray from God's Plan for Creation.

We refer also to the "1990 prophecy." "My greatest nemesis is science, even more so than the media," the Lord supposedly said in a dream to an anonymous recipient. "The science that alters life, the science which creates a counterfeit heaven, the science that toils with the womb and genes..."

In an addendum fourteen years later -- the only other one released from this person -- were allegedly the words, "There is going to be a major disruption in a region of the world that will affect everyone. The world is now seriously out of conformance with the Will of God and what He created and intended. There are those who would reconfigure the very creatures He has formed, and who meddle with the texture of life. For this reason, the Lord will allow a huge reorientation. If not for the action of Heaven, what God has created on earth will soon be damaged beyond recovery. A very dramatic effect already is in progress as regards the support structures of what man calls  nature. Such cannot be allowed to take the final realization of total realignment when it comes to the very way elements and life forces interact. The event to come will surprise everyone who has offered a prognostication, and will show even recalcitrant scientists, though not all, that there is a fundamental alarm in Heaven over their arrogant and wayward course. Nothing that is artificial in a way that disrupts what God intended will be allowed to stand."

For your considered judgment (and vigilance). Who can say? Once seemingly so radical and mysterious, the words seem less so in light of the truly remarkable move in science to re-create -- forever, in irrevocable fashion -- what God has created.
