>Ethics of cloning across international borders

>You may have heard of Gerald Schatten, PhD, now of Pittsburgh, because of his prior collaboration with the University of California at Irvine fertility specialists who were accused of selling and misplacing – even using them in other women – the embryos of couples who came to them for treatment of infertility. Dr. Schatten needed … Continue reading

Mississippi House bans embryonic stem cell research

Thanks to bioethics.com for alerting me to this story. (Of course, it’s only the House – let’s see whether it gets through the Missippi Senate and is signed by the Governor. Hope so.) The story is common to all who work for laws, especially those which restrict funding for the “experts.” One of the legislators … Continue reading

Life, intelligence, and feelings

I received an email from one of the readers. (Evidently, my spam program diverted it.) I make it my usual policy to only respond to reader’s comments on the blog, but I won’t post his name, since he chose not to post it here. Here’s the body of his message, and my reply: Dear Beverly … Continue reading

Answers to cloning lies and redefinitions

Killing is not "medicine"

One does not treat suffering by killing the sufferer. Treating pain control and the prescriptions intended to cause death as one issue is a red herring.
