55 Flash Fiction - Tim & Sal #7
"On other worlds there were people who had been engineered, 'Chimera' I believe you would call them, Although it was outlawed after the first generation died off"
"How long ago was that?"
"Ten of my own people's generations ago."
"That would have been about 2600 years ago, about the time of our biblical prophet, Ezekiel."

Satyrs ? half men & half goats waist down!
I remember that Satyrs were symbolic of men, who were 'animals' waist down, suggesting lust that rules the lower part of the body.
Ezekiel, the warner...But then there were so many come after who were warners

On second thoughts, i think Centaurs must be the most perfect example of a Chimera....( Next only to Sphinx of Egypt of course :D)
What exactly does this refer to. The angels (khrub) in Ezekiel's vision, having human/ox/eagle/lion parts?
Mona,
Tagged? ARRRGGG. I hate that. (but I'll do it for you)
Quine,
You know more of it than I would have thought, not that I think you wouldn't know anything, but rather I would think you would shirk such learning. To answer, yes, human and ox and eagle(oh, and angles.)
Well, that's better than saying chimera creatures of mythology are undisputable proof of aliens....
