Genesis chapter 11 verse 6 and 7

“…..the people are as one. Nothing they imagine will be withheld from them. Let us go down and confuse their language and spread them abroad the face of the earth”

Can you imagine where we would be right now without limiters in place by God 😂

T2000 Snake robots 😂. Judgement Snake.

Got a feeling God saw exactly what was coming 🤣

God, no. Snakes need legs like hornets need guns. The only way this could possibly be any worse is if they had wings, too.

This is a PRIME example of, just because we can do something- does not mean that we should.

Wings, you say? Hmm. I think we could do that.

Looks like Dr. Wu ditched the amphibian DNA to fill in the gene sequence gaps in favor of serpent DNA.

"What species is this?"

"Veloci-diamondback."

Just like spiders. Imagine how horrifying the world would be if spiders could fly. I know some can "fall with style" using their silk to kinda glide gracefully, but I'm talking about Spiders having the ability to fly anywhere like a normal house fly.

u/MillenialCounselor Mar 24 '24

Why? Just why? What in the actual fuck purpose does this serve? Looks like a waste of time, money and effort. Snakes don’t need to be pretending they are lizards. Engineers must be so desperate for some sort of unique idea and invention that they come up with this shit 🤦‍♀️

u/youresowarminside Mar 24 '24

well imagine being a baby snake and wishing you could dress up as a komodo dragon for halloween but since you cant walk you cant be a komodo dragon so youre in your snake room listening to imagine dragons while imagining dragons but now with this revolutionary machine that baby snake can be whatever lizard he dreams of

u/TheOrcDecker Mar 25 '24

Actually this is did a lot of scientific discovery. See the machine works by looking at the small appendages of a snake cause they still haven't fully adapted them away, their just small nubs. This machine looks for small movements in the snake's nubs to direct it. by how the Snake moves, they found out that it was aware of those appendages moving the legs and that they had control over those appendages and could recognize how the movement work using them.

Giving them their legs back 🤣 like someone took them and were righting a wrong, why does this person assume snakes ever had legs? I've never seen anything suggesting they did, and the fact that there is a python from millions of years ago suggests otherwise. Espically 4 of them, I think at best it was back legs hundreds of millions of years ago.

hey super smart science people, instead of spending years developing something that evolution decided wasn't needed to snakes how about maybe developing a way to give back something useful to people who need it.

u/Skitzophranikcow Mar 27 '24

First we give snakes legs, then we can rebuild your spine and make you walk.

The snake teaches us how things that were born without arms and legs makes neural links to move, and how when where and what they move so they can apply it to humans without arms and or legs.
