    When I say "Artificial" I usually mean non-biological, When I say "Synthetic" I mean in vitro organs and tissues... it's going to be awhile before we can get people to grow body parts back like a salamander (in vivo).

    Here is a quick definition for people that don’t know these terms:
    In vitro: outside of living system.
    In vivo: inside a living system.

    don't use synthetic then, because in vitro isn't synthetic. It's just confusing

    it is still biological, so it depends on your aims...

    engineered tissue would be ok in some occasions

    in vitro would be ok in some occasions

    As long as they dont produce fully formed human brains I dont care what they do with any anthropomorphic bag of meat. If they do produce a complete clone all I ask is that he or she be protected by the constitution as a full human being.
