Further proof of my assertion that cloning is about far more than embryonic stem cells and will not long remain in the Petri dish comes now from the United Kingdom, in which a Parliamentary bioethics panel has suggested that reproductive cloning be permitted, such license to include the creation of designer babies and sex selection. The panel also opined that it would be perfectly splendid to implant human embryos into animals for research.
As I keep saying, the Science and Bioethics Establishments have become highly radicalized and ideological. They perceive cloned unborn human life as fodder, a mere commodity. Self restraint is not in their dictionary. They force society to place reasonable moral limits on biotechnology, and then without a hint of irony gripe that such actions are “anti science.”
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
