Virginia-based researchers announced Wednesday July 1, 2001 that they created human
embryos sole for the purpose of killing them, to obtain stem
cells.
Scientists at the Jones Institute for Reproductive Medicine at Eastern
Virginia Medical School took 168 donor eggs, fertilized 110 of them with
donor sperm, and grew 40 of them to the blastocyst stage. Of the 40
unborn children created, 18 had harvestable inner masses resulting in 3
stem cell lines.
The only problem with using embryos for such research is that they have to be killed. We shouldn't
sacrifice children simply because they might be
useful to save some other life. Christians
must emphatically oppose any such proposals.

Grassfire.net just delivered more than 47,000 petitions to President Bush urging
him to uphold the ban to keep our tax dollars from funding human
embryo stem
cell research. They would like to deliver another 25,000 petitions this week.
