We're going to incorporate some genetic material of other multicellular species into the human genome when the value added is high enough. We shouldn't use the technology to make slave races, but we shouldn't stop people from changing themselves and their germ line in safe ways for their own purposes, and that's probably going to involve borrowing some genes. They could be better adapted to certain environments, for instance.
The game changer will be making people smarter though, not more like other species. Some people think genetic optimization for intelligence could result in IQs over 400. That's sure to have some side effects....

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
