Subject: RE: BS: On Ethics and Stem Cell Research
I think suppressing human discovery is worth bashing anytime, pal, but it is not an opportunity I created.
"Harvesting babies", John? I think you are imputing aspersions. The two issues are totally separate questions. IF someone aborts, accidentally or intentionally, there is no harm in turning that sad fact into something positive.
That does not mean we should then encourage abortions; I am not interested in encouraging them. I think they should be legal, though. What should discourage them is individual assessment of ethics, since they are traumatic all around.
