True. I've seen few people around here who really know where embryonic stem cells originate. Most seem to believe that they come from aborted fetuses, when that is not true; or that they come from some sci-fi type test tube babies or something.
Actually, they come from frozen embryos left over from fertility treatments that couples get. If the couple does not use some of the embryos, they are destroyed if the couple does not elect to preserve them.
Again, these embryos were to be destroyed, anyway. None had ever even been implanted in a woman's uterus. They would NEVER have become a baby.
Clones conceived for therapeutic goals would never be allowed to be born, so I suppose they're fair game also?
Lots of supposition, there.
First, there's a move to have those embryos adopted by couples who can't make their own embryos. There has also been a move in the last few years to make fewer embryos, so that there are fewer to store. It is also possible now to freeze harvested oocytes, rather than make more embryos than are to be implanted.
Second, we are all going to die, but that does not negate our right not to be killed by someone else. Why don't we turn all death row prisons into organ farms?
