He’s referring to the first few weeks after a sperm fertilizes an egg, when the embryo is inside a woman’s body and hard to study. A long-standing guideline bars scientists from conducting research on embryos in their labs beyond 14 days of development for ethical reasons.

...

Imagine that. Scientific ethics draws the line at 14 days.

Democrats draw the line sometime after nine months.

Scientists have invented a device that can quickly produce large numbers of living entities that resemble very primitive human embryos.

I’ve got one of those. So far It’s produced four primitive humans.
