I just read that scientists have been able to trick stem cells into developing into sperm cells. I'm not really sure I see the point of that. Was the millions they spent to accomplish this money well spent?

What about for a lack of sperm donors that are needed now for those who can not bare a child? I could see the point in this but the science would be killer, how would they be able to replicate a certain trait?

Personally, I feel that when they start messing with sperm cells and ovaries and start trying to repulicate life things are getting a little too Jekyl and Hyde.

It seems to me there are enough children in the world who need parents without trying to create a bunch more human sperm.

The only thing I can think of is if they can somehow use it to help endangered species.
