Reason: The stem cell war heats up again

Ronald Bailey writing at Reason: “The case had been brought before the court by the conservative Christian Alliance Defense Fund and Nightlight Christian Adoptions which wants to put embryos left over from fertility treatments up for ‘adoption.’ Both argue that deriving human embryonic stem cells kills pre-born people. Given that about 60 percent of Americans support stem cell research using embryos left over from fertility treatments, this ruling will surely spark the stem cell wars anew.”
