As long as my tax dollars don't go towards this then go have a ball. But if my tax goes towards funding this at all I'm protesting. 

Why? It's amazing and very useful for mankind.

Not really.  I mean, unless you are going to activily gentically alter people for superior genes and take out hereditary diseases and the like...

having two gay people have a biological son isn't actually useful for mankind. 

Great for the indvidual parents sure, but it holds no actual benefit for mankind since the genetics of two people are going to be random, and when you consider the losing out on adoption and overpopulation you could argue that on a larger sense it'd be damaging.

It's the same with surogacy for infertile straight couples.  Really it'd be great if we could move away from a culture that suggests that you NEED to have a child who has your DNA.

That's in our blood. We feel closer to a true blood relative. Lots of studies have proven this. Evolution-wise it does make a lot of sense.
