I think it was that I accept that it is a sacrifice of life, rather than dodging that point. And it is a life. ... There are some things that have to be done, even if they are unpleasent.<hr size="1" /></blockquote><span class='postcolor'>
I'm concerned, very concerned, that as we go down the path of cloning embryonic and eventually fetal clones of patients to be treated, we have ceded the cannibalization of fellow humans is but a decision of degree of utilitarian use (a path which may in fact not even be necessary, since it is adult stem cell manipulation that appears to hold greatest immediate promise ... and once we learn the mechanisms of stem cell cascade from totipotent to pluripotent to multipotent, the rest is mere technology, without killing an embryonic individual human being). Could we perhaps discuss that? |
