Quote:
If therapeutic cloning is the researchers' only goal, why is the procedure controversial? One reason is that its whole basis has been attacked by the anti-abortion movement on the grounds that dissecting a blastocyst is tantamount to killing a person.
Large numbers of surplus blastocysts are routinely generated in fertility clinics, and the merest handful of these have provided all the stem cells used in research. But white-coated scientists make a better political target than infertile couples desperately seeking to produce a baby.
