The scientist who created Dolly the sheep, the world's first cloned mammal, was granted a license Tuesday to clone human embryos for medical research.It won't be long and we'll be harvesting whole crops of cloned babies for organs and whatnot...slippery slope...get ready for the ride because with Groningen Protocols and human cloning, Europe thinks it is God.
Professor Ian Wilmut, of the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, plans to obtain stem cells for research into Motor Neurone Disease (MND), a procedure that divides the medical world along ethical lines.
Britain's cloning watchdog, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), granted the license Tuesday to Wilmut, Dr Paul de Sousa from Edinburgh and Professor Christopher Shaw from King's College London.
It is only the second such license granted in Britain.
Mark's Remarks
Of course they think they are God, because they no longer acknowledge there is a sovereign above humanity. Beware, Americans, this could be us if we do not shape up.
Off the religion for a moment, don't these clones have rights? Aren't they people? Or are they products? Do we want to make those calls? Come on now...
