Deeply fascinated by creatures that can reproduce children without the aid of a male counterpart, scientists Alexis L. Sperling and his team were able to genetically modify a fruitfly in a laboratory to produce offspring asexually, the first time this has ever been clinically demonstrated.
The British evolutionary biologist at the University of Cambridge was able to bioengineer “Drosophila melanogaster,” the fancy name for the fruitfly, to have the ability to perform “parthenogenesis,” which refers to a “virgin birth.”
Sperling’s observations were published in the journal Current Biology; writing that the offspring is “completely healthy and despite having inherited the power to carry out parthenogenesis, they also retain their ability to reproduce sexually.”
Sperling’s team unlocked the key to allowing for these virgin births by studying the genome of two variants of another type of fly. One produces normally and the other through parathenogenesis, and through study two genes were observed, followed by the researchers locating the equivalents in the fruitfly, and then began to cross-engineer the genes to create a GMO asexual fruitfly.
Not only have they found the magical combination of genes, but they are also using it to give a species that was not capable of parthenogenesis the ability to do so.
Cayetano González, a veteran drosophila researcher at the Barcelona Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB), said, commenting on the findings, calling them “very surprising.”

Sperling and company believe it is possible they will discover this capability in more animals and insects they research, which they postulate could be used to reduce invasive species overtaking natural habitats and other infestations.
I want to start to understand how this happens in pests. I would like to test all the pesticides we use and see if any of them are promoting parthenogenesis. To know if our means of mass agricultural production really favors this type of pest.
Sperling added
El PaÍs added, ‘Sperling is going to redirect his investigation towards a worrying new phenomenon. Parthenogenesis is much more common in insects that are agricultural pests and can cause millions of dollars in losses. An example is the tomato moth —Tuta absoluta—, considered one of the worst agricultural pests globally. Although it was relatively under control thanks to current pest management methods, in recent years the insects seem to have become more resistant.’
The outlet added: ‘One method of combating these pests is to flood the greenhouse with artificial female pheromones. The males become so saturated by these biochemical signals that they are unable to find the actual females, resulting in no reproduction. But it seems that female tomato moths are increasingly capable of reproducing by parthenogenesis, and this in turn gives them an enormous advantage, since with each generation it is not only half the individuals adapted to their environment that can have offspring —50% females, 50% males—but potentially 100%. Despite this, experiments have shown that only 2% of second-generation fruit flies produce offspring asexually, and only as long as there are no males around.’
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
Psalm 141:4
What could go wrong playing God, right?
Beyond the nefarious deeds of manipulating God’s creation and assuredly using this for evil of all sorts, this also feeds into the transgender and transsexual satanic agenda. By doing things like this these wicked people who modify their bodies and pretend to be the opposite gender, or whatever else they dream up, they can use this to justify their actions and lifestyle.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

It’s gonna backfire on them! Playing God is playing with fire, the only thing more dangerous than that is messing with or attacking the King James Bible.
Yes sir, playing God is an absolute death sentence, ya know what happens when ya play with fire…
They tried something similar when they created the ‘love bug’ nuisance in Florida way back. I don’t know if it countered anything, but it sure did clog a lot of big truck radiators! (This is way worse, of course, now with CRISPR in the mix, & the protection of even a knowledge of the word of God removed from most.) Lawless men building their kingdoms & ‘climbing’, supposing that gain is godliness, that only make for a greater fall, & the spiritual mass & gravity weighting, steering/ballast, ‘trimming their sails’; and dragging them down to Hell in the end.

The chapter marked by a ‘6’ and three 7’s….just a random thing, I’m sure.

And containing THREE of the major target doctrinal verses targeted by every per-ver$ion on the Babylonian base out of Alexandria: verse 10, pinpointing the true idol god of many determining their ‘law’, ‘morality’: the Gentiles, where they change ‘all’ to ‘some’.

Empire is of Japheth, & he tends to think that it is he himself accomplishing it, deceived by his own pride. (Proverbs 16:18 KJB) Genesis 9:27 KJB God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

And verse 6:15, three 5’s. You don’t want to get on the wrong side of that one: the Augustinian kingdom builders’ ascending godman, works, ritual & nicolaitan thing for ‘human’ Sovereigns climbing by works & ‘knowledge/science’ & Craft, by hook or by crook: cunning craftiness by which men seek to deceive, in the place of our Lord & Potentate.

(That change isn’t because of ‘obscure & old-fashioned English’, but due to the plain distinction the Father gave by the Lord Jesus Christ and Spirit, cloaked by the deliberate dumbing down & dulled by the deliberate demoralization. A man had to pay the price, but only God could…and men hang themselves rationalizing other ‘ways’ due to lack of humility & submission to the word of God by his Spirit & lining our wills up with his.)
–
Then verse, 6:20 ….doubling down & choice making the difference ultimately, 1 Peter 1 KJB. They don’t like words like ‘profane’ or ‘science’….sometimes stealing it from here, sometimes from where it’s found in Daniel 1:4…subtly weakening the ‘clue’, or, more and more, removing it completely as they ‘scientize’, ‘systematize’, philosophize to the nicolaitan will & way of Babylon. Subtle, sophist devils & many with skin.

1Timothy 6:1-5 of 21 KJB ¶ Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.
1Ti 6:2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.
1Ti 6:3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
1Ti 6:4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
1Ti 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

1Timothy 6:6-12 of 21 KJB ¶ But godliness with contentment is great gain.
1Ti 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
1Ti 6:8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
1Ti 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1Ti 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
1Ti 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

1Timothy 6:13-21 of 21 KJB ¶ I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
1Ti 6:14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1Ti 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
1Ti 6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
1Ti 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
1Ti 6:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
1Ti 6:19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
1Ti 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
1Ti 6:21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen. The first to Timothy was written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest city of Phrygia Pacatiana.
Wow. Notice also where 1 Timothy 6 was written from. The ‘scholar’s guild’ doesn’t like to retain that history, or historical & spiritual context which the Lord preserved there, either. Old Johnnie MacMason and such coming to mind.
BTW….just confirmed it again, after clearing cookies & jumping through hoops: ‘Brave’ browser dialectic organizer ‘right’ & ROME as bigtime as Yahoo! Wahoo! ‘left’…..& Mercola have locked me out for getting a little too Gospel, salty & shining light where they all hate it shone. Last time, they let me back in for awhile, but some things I said hit home & encouraged a few people before they updated their ‘sorting’ for ‘privy member worshippers’ as a label for the Mammon & filthiness 2 Peter 2-Revelation 3 crowd on the broad way….which no doubt ticked off some proud handlers ‘working it’ there.

Both eyes wide open, brethren, & praise the Lord that his vision & word is always 2020 in truth.
And my original comment & the full text of 1 Timothy 6 KJB with some specific warning was censored, even here.

That’s okay. I ‘get it’ now. Back on the Rock.
has anyone watched the “israelism” film ?
or knows of a trusted review channel?
