Artificial life likely in three to ten years

clipped from www.usatoday.com Around the world, a handful of scientists are trying to create life from scratch and they're getting closer. Experts expect an announcement within three to 10 years from someone in the now little-known field of "wet artificial life."

When I read this article, I was reminded of the story in Genesis 11 where the people began to build a city and tower to reach heaven.

Genesis 11:4, "And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

Well, the Lord came down and took a look. He confounded their language and spread them abroad! When the people think they are smarter than God, then God lets them know who is boss.
