No. Self proclaimed "Homo sapiens sapiens" should first focus on trying to live up to its name. It is still far from meeting the standard the name suggests.

Synthetic biology expert Dr. George Church told Der Spiegel magazine (amongst other things) that the cloning of a live Neanderthal baby would be possible in our lifetime, and that using stem cells to create a Neanderthal could have significant benefits to society. "The first thing you have to do is to sequence the Neanderthal genome, and that has actually been done," Church said.
