How is it at the expense of anothers when these mothers were going to abort these babies anyway? That's like saying it's wrong to accept an organ for your child donated by the parent of a deceased child, as if giving your child this organ was somehow at the expense of this deceased child. It would be one thing if the fetus was killed to get the vaccine, but that's not what happened. What you have is a fetus that was aborted and instead of just going in the trash can or whatever they do with aborted fetuses some cells were taken from the fetus that were used to make vaccines that have kept millions of people from getting sick. It was wrong for the mothers to abort the babies, but at least something good is coming out of it. Shoot, most of us live into our seventies and never help anywhere close to as many people as these babies who never got to know life. The abortions were wrong, but I personally don't think it's wrong to use some cells from these aborted fetuses to help millions of people on the country, many of which weren't even born when these cells were first taken.

Until today I had no idea this was even going on. I read that one of these vaccines common today was derived from cells taken from a baby aborted in 1961, before I was even born. I've probably had that vaccine. Most of us have probably had a vaccine like this. It's creepy that these vaccines were derived from cells from aborted fetuses. It's wrong that these women aborted their children, but I personally do not see it as being immoral to take cells from a fetus that was dead anyway to make a vaccine to help millions of people. You are free to have a differing opinion.

In human nature, it is IMPOSSIBLE to stop at one dead aborted fetus. No matter how you try to justify it, abortion of any kind, getting cells from one aborted fetus, will always lead to the world we have today. Abortion mills making millions off of fetal tissue, wanting new embryonic stem cell lines to decimate to “help” other illnesses, even though cord blood and adult stem cells work better. I have serious doubts as to how much truth in this issue there is, as the very people who are telling us what they are doing, are the ones who are using aborted children to inject into living children. I think I would choose to believe that they are telling us ONLY as much as they need to, but not the entire truth about what they are doing.

As always, the slippery slope when aborted fetal material was used for ANYTHING, it will ALWAYS deteriorate to the situation we are now facing. The end will never justify the means, and when one adopts an attitude that the baby was going to be aborted anyway, it will always lead to more abortion, the more “uses” that are found for the tissue will lead to even more. No, I am afraid I cannot agree with your stance. I would have surely like to know whether or not that baby would have preferred life over being made into a vaccine, and I think every child should have the right to answer for themselves.
