It's started...The mutants are coming!

A boy born in China can see in the dark, like a cat--

Sensationalism. His eye color or skin color or any color has nothing to do with vision. Everyone has these genes in them. It's when they turn on and off that determines character traits is the only difference.

As for being able to see in the dark, he is obviously very sensitive to light. Not like cat, not like a rabbit and not like a skunk nor a hamster nor a bat. (That sentence was a grammar teachers worst nightmare.)
Maybe if his eyes were green and slightly slotted...

C'mon.

You'll have to excuse me. I got a little "truculent" there for a moment. -beers.

M. Night Shyamalan's next movie, a remake of Cat People, as well as a co-production with the Chinese film industry.

"I see cat people."

100% agreed!

This is basic biology 101, recessive phenotype genes that need two copies to activate. The reason why he has blue eyes is because both his parents have this recessive gene, he just got both copies.

But I think this propaganda is more sinister than just creative journalism.

Just the other day, a friend of my was talking about his experience with some Chinese students at Uni. One re-occurring thing that he heard them say was that some Chinese actually believe that they are a separate species to humans!

I just had to die laughing. I told my friend that he should have told them: if that was the case then a non-Chinese should never be able to have kids with Chinese people!

When was the last time you witnessed a cat mate with a donkey and give birth to a catonkey?

100% correct.
