It sometimes seems that the term Nazi has been so overused that certain Jews have become hesitant to use the term when it really applies. Their more liberal cousins bandy the term around like a standard preposition, but it doesn't get applied to those who really do the same things the Nazis did, such as the medical experimentation.
Strange world.

So now all medical experimentation is off-limits, just because Nazis did evil medical experiments? That's like calling Boy Scout camps reminders of Nazis, because after all, they built camps, too.
I find this priest to be disingenuous. His grounds for comparing this experiment to the Nazis is based on the fact that the embryo was destroyed. Well, aside from the fact that none of the other of the millions of embryos being destroyed each year seemed to merit his individual attention, my suspicion is that if this particular embryo had been carried successfully to term, his outrage (and everyone else's) would have been all the greater.
It's the cloning technique, much more than the final disposition of the embryo, that offends his sensibilities. When he says, "From the moment of conception, the embryo is invested with human dignity and blessed with the gift of life," I don't believe he believes what he's saying.
