If you haven't heard there are some questions about the "ethics" behind the eggs used to make clones for stem cell reserch.

Am I somehow morally depraved for not caring, or worse thinking that it's perfectly fine?

The U.S. publicity and religious system needs to stay out of Korea's scientific endeavors.

Jesus, the stupidity never fails to amaze.

What I find interesting is that the religious groups, at the same time, decry possible human clones as inhuman, and claim that cloning humans for stem cells as murder......

I would say hardly at all, because a woman carries more than a million eggs at birth and the eggs will die off in her system if they are not used for birth at any rate.

Personally, the biggest issue here about using those eggs is the way that the South Koreans have been obtaining them. They were not informing their donors that there was a possibility of death and infertility with the operation and they also conveniently forgot the disclosures for them as well.

Whoops!
