This makes me wonder. Do you think it is possible that some day certain stem cell donor types will be in high demand, like certain blood donors?

Will we see a certain class of people who are desired for their attibutes and use their stem cells to create children?

The mind boggles at all the possible consequences and/or benefits.

Moral absolutes ping.

Hwang has been discredited as a being very unethical in his work due to the methods he has used in obtaining eggs. The slippery slope that embryonic stem cell and cloning is on is not only immoral, it has yet to yield any clear results. At the same time, the left has methodically downplayed ALL of the many breakthroughs in adult stem cells and umbilical cord cells.

Cloning and using embryos, harvesting babies for their body parts is barbaric, I'd say the consequences will be harsh, in this world or the next.

Here is a list of the safe, ethical and effective use of adult stem cells and not one baby had to be killed.
