Re: Hybrid Embryos
by
Maz
Its a very difficult subject, as all debates relating to human 'life' are.
I personally am in favour of advanced medical research to find cures for diseases and development for life saving treatments......... I've lost family and friends to cancer and supported a friend through having a transplant. I am not religious or atheist so these opinions come from my moral conscious.
However, I do think it needs to be carefully controlled in terms of what is allowed to be done and how far these embryos are allowed to develop. I am afraid I don't know enough of the scientific side of this argument but I think it would be irresponsible to allow research to be uncontrolled.
As for the religious moral argument, I think the concept of IVF to produce a donor match baby is good example. I think people's personal views and beliefs will direct them in action. If you believe it is wrong then you won't use the opportunities a change in the law would provide. If you are in the situation of needing to use this extreme option then you morals and beliefs will direct your decision. If the law is there we have the 'Freedom of Choice' that religion has given us.
With regard to the worries of 'designer babies', this can be combatted by careful control of the process.
Right or wrong until we have been faced with a situation where we may need one of these services can we honestly say we wouldn't use it?
