Indeed. Creationist veterinarian Randy Wysong in fact pre-rejected any such feats in his 1976 book. Interestingly, he actually thoiught that life HAD been created in the lab - he merely claimed it to be evidence not of evolution, but of design, because the scientists added that magical ingredient "KNOW-HOW" (caps in original).
Absurd.
