>"Fertilized eggs" and cloned human embryos (The future, again)
>“ScienceBlogs” is one of the examples I give when I’m trying to explain the anti-life, anti-religion atmosphere that is pushed (like a religion itself) in our universities and by the Powers That Be in science academia and publishing. I think I may have identified one or two of the bloggers as believers (proof that miracles … Continue reading
Governments threaten physicians for anti-abortion policy
In our Nation, with our First Amendment, why doesn’t someone threaten all the bodies placing restrictions on conscience clauses and against religious-based practices? In Portugal, the Health Minister has been threatening to take the Portugal Medical Association to Court for its policy that states that doctors should respect human life from fertilization to natural death. … Continue reading
>New Stem Cells Questions and Answers
>A reader posts some questions that I’ll try to answer. (Thanks, Janet!) The most important thing to remember is that the new iPS cells appear to be like embryonic stem cells, but they can be made without killing anyone and they can be made to match the patient. “Does this new procedure use any cells … Continue reading
“George Bush and the Catholic Church hold us in thrall”
That’s what Terry over at the Womens Bioethics Project Blog says. Terry has a big problem with the breakthrough in stem cell research that so many of us are thrilled with, and says, It is amazing to see how the Catholic Church and George Bush can hold us all in thrall regarding human embryonic stem … Continue reading
“I want” ethics reigns, even with good stem cell news
I found someone willing to admit that she’s not happy with today’s news on the production of embryo-like stem cells without the destruction of embryos or harm to women from donating eggs. Robin Alta Charo is a lawyer who, as part of the Clinton administration’s National Bioethics Advisory Commission, helped fabricate the policy to allow … Continue reading
>Give me liberty or give me condoms!
>Where are the condom squads who go around making sure that every grocery store, drug store, and 24 hour convenience store stocks latex condoms and the appropriate lubricants, “at all times”? Condoms are a much more basic public health issue than Plan B, which only works (when it works) for about 5 days in the … Continue reading
>Some Bloggers shouldn’t reproduce
>They shouldn’t reproduce their thoughts in writing, that is. Take a look at the comments on “Laws, conscience, medicine and bloggers,” for a perfect example of “they just don’t get it.” Freedom of conscience is part of the Washington State law. The Governor threatened to replace the members of the State Pharmacy Board if they … Continue reading
>Previous review Texas Cancer and stem cell research
>Here’s a link to a post from last January on HB 14, and House Joint Resolution 90, the Bills which became Proposition 15, the Legislation for $3 billion in cancer research bonds and the Texas Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas. The original article is no longer available on the Austin American Statesman site, … Continue reading
Statistics and politics
Statistics are easily mistakenly used and manipulated. Rudy Guiliani is under attack due to statistics that he quoted in a political ad running in New Hampshire . He spoke about the odds of surviving prostate cancer, contrasting the medical systems in the United States and in the United Kingdom. I saw a link to an … Continue reading
>Human dignity: What it is
>Whether it’s a genetic result of evolution or the way we are designed by a Creator, even very young children seem to have a sense that it’s important to understand that there are consequences to infringing rights of other people before they can express “That’s not fair!.” My attempt a couple of days ago to … Continue reading
