Vatican Against ‘Ethical’ Stem Cells
A new technique of harvesting stem cells without destroying the embryos is coming under fire from the Vatican as unethical. What do you think?

"I expect this kind of knee-jerk moral grandstanding from Bush, but the Vatican?"
Ivan Andresen,
Music Promoter
"I wish, time and time again, that the Vatican were not composed of the foremost scientists on embryonic research in the world. This makes it very difficult for anyone to argue a case against them, and we are repeatedly left at an impasse."
Kelly Miller,
Stained Glass Artisan
"It serves those scientists right for trying to slip under the Vatican's ethical radar with these disease-eradicating, life-saving experiments."
