The Unconscionable Claims of Michael J. Fox

Pardon? What are you calling a red herring tactic? What is too vague and for what?

 

Good thing the Lord numbered the hairs on our heads so He can put yours back.

 

So, you are saying that we should outlaw in vitro fertilization, if you believe that. What should be done with all those frozen embryos that are a result of this process?

I disagree completely!

If these unused cells can be used in research to help cure diseases, I'm all for it.

 

It comes down to a matter of arguing over the lesser of two evils, in essence.

Humankind exists for purpose - ultimately God's good purpose, yes, but purpose nonetheless. Thus from a philosophical, if not strictly theological, standpoint, I would argue for the use of embroyos which are slated to be discarded.

Just to clarify: there is nothing illegal about embroyonic stem cell research. Thee is nothing illegal about using embroyos from fertility clinics, or harvested from live donors, in conducting stem cell research. The debate is whether or not to provide Federal funding for the embroyonic stem cell research, and nothing more.

And about the subject of cloning: I fail to understand why this is such a point of terror for Christians. Even if human beings are cloned, is God unable to provide cloned humans with souls? Has science finally hit upon the one thing God cannot do?

 

"Just to clarify: there is nothing illegal about embroyonic stem cell research"

Just a thought, that we (as a nation) are quickly becoming the Pharisees of Jesus time. If it is legal and we do it then we are indeed righteous individuals. When Christ said that our righteousness must exceed the righteousness of the Pharisees is it not possible that he was expressing that our morals are to come from the heart and the spirit of the bible rather than through adherence of the law.

Just because something is legal does not mean that it is right.

There will come a time when they will kill you thinking that they do God and humanity a good service but as long as it is legal I suppose it will be alright.

Amendment 2 stipulates that Federal guidelines must be followed. Federal law forbids reproductive cloning.

Ends justifies the means for you, eh carpro?

In his basement? How would this law be used as a cover?

There is no "right" to reproductive cloning and you know it, small print or large. It's illegal in the US which includes Missouri.

 

God will judge people that I like . . . He will judge people that I do not like.

But, He will judge everyone. Me, you, and the teenage girl down the street that is seduced by the glitz of the modern world and then seeks an abortion that destroys her life and then she takes her own.

When the those in the image of God murder - God is clear - eliminate the cancer from among us.

May He judge us kindly . . . instead of He judging us harshly.

 

I'm busy - I'll let you look it up

 

I guess as long as it's you throwing the switch, you can decide who God judges and does not judge.

 

Assume this is what I hear being said.

 

I was being facetious (as you probably guessed).

Of course, it's possible - it sure wouldn't be the first time...

Great thread - even if they do not respond for the Truth - they have read it.
