If we know what the human body is made up of, why can’t we make a human?

Question

Is it impossible or do we just not have the technology required?

Answer 1

We don’t understand the human body NEARLY enough to make one any other way than regular human reproduction. We don’t even have names for over half of the necessary organisms that live in our digestive system. On a side note, If you do figure out how to make a human another way, then teleportation is only a few steps away after that. You could send the “recipe” for the human in transit to a place where they could grow a new you. The old you might be recycled for materials, but try not to think about that too much.
