Ending a human life for the "further off" hope that it might do some good some day, when there is all kinds of potential and success without ending that life MAKES NO SENSE.
“The problem with that ‘pluripotent’ cell is that it is a human embryo that could be a scientist, or physician, or mathematician, or musician, or philanthropist, or just a regular old good guy........”
I agree. I do not believe that innocent life should be destroyed to create cures for others.
It is a tough argument to make, given that IVF treatment is so common, and that it results in the destruction of thousands of embryos each day. Many protest vigorously the use of these embryos for the creation of stem cells that may provide cures. However, when it comes to the huge number of embryos produced, stored and discarded in the fertility industry they are silent. My belief is that the destruction of embryos is wrong in either circumstance.
The problem with that 'pluripotent' cell is that it is a human embryo that could be a scientist, or physician, or mathematician, or musician, or philanthropist, or just a regular old good guy........Or a rapist, or a murderer, or a war criminal.
