Strange argument last night...

[Captain Ben]

No good can come of having a giant fire breathing sky demon. Some might desire one, but the people who don't have the foresight to recognize what this beast would do should not be allowed to own one anyways.
Your friend was an idiot, you are better off without him.

 

[Vicarious Reality]

Obviously a very very very bad idea.

 

[Tonythion]

'Laid-back' implies they wouldn't just up and eat you just because you failed to greet them in the correct way. Which is what your average dragon would do. Your average dragon is a total ***** if you ask me. I think they're way overrated.

Of course this whole conversation is pointless since they don't actually exist.

Well from the books and tales I've read/heard I haven't heard of a Dragon that would eat you for no good reason. They just tend to ignore what they don't deem important. But obviously we've read different stories so shall we agree to disagree?

Dragons exist(ed)! LALALALALALALALALALA I don't care what you say!

What weird argument to get worked up about.

1) Genetic Engineering does not work that way. You can add genetic codes for protein expression. You cannot add wings to things that don't have wings.

2) A real flying lizard wouldn't be shaped like a dragon they would be more like birds.

3) Everybody knows that dragons would be used as a form of renewable energy not as weapons. We've already got drones aircraft who need unreliable magical animals to fight wars. Duh!
