The real agenda of fetal stem cell advocates
All the hypocritical talk by proponents of fetal stem cell research about saving lives and improving their quality and not being "anti-science" is ringing pretty hollow today.
Kathryn Jean Lopez points out that on Tuesday, they succeeded in killing a bill that would have funded the study of alternative approaches to stem cell therapy that would not necessitate the destruction of human embryos.
Ms. Lopez also points out a curious "creep" in the position of stem-cell advocates from a mere willingness to work with embryos which would have been destroyed anyway to... well, read the article. Suffice it to say that at this point it's pretty clear that helping sick and disabled people is not the real agenda here. The real agenda is to make the destruction of human embryos something which is generally accepted without even a qualm.
It's worth noting that when Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney attempted to reach a compromise on the issue by agreeing to stem cell research using "spare" embryos only, as long as no new ones were created for spare parts, the pro-fetal stem cell research crowd bluntly rejected the compromise.
Yup. Another agenda here entirely.
