Voters set to reject gay marriage, ban on abortion

[Kärnfysikern]

So what you are saying is that the ends justify the means...no matter what those means are? This is why this is a social issue, whenever there is an attempt to draw a moral equivalency, society must choose the path.

What I am saying is that the embryo will never become a living breathing human beeing.
Does it do more dignity to the embryo to toss it into a trashbin rather than to use it to save lifes? Does it value life more to vaste the life saving potential of a (in your oppinion) life lost?

Using the embryo for stem cell research is comparable in my mind to donating organs after death. No one is going to miss my kidney when I am dead and no one is going to miss the embryos stem cells.

The net effect is that no child is born, doesnt matter if we use the embryo or not.

In my mind we show life respect if we use the embryo to save other lifes rather than simply discard it because of what it has the potential to become but never will.

I thought we were avoiding this subj....

If that is the line of thinking, what's wrong with necrophilia? These people are dead anyway, why not let these sickos get a crack at them? After all they are just going to be cremated or buried anyway.

The underlying social problem is that this mentality makes life, however you wish to define it, less important. "The problem with this slippery slope is that it is so damn slippery."
