There weems to be no middle ground on this topic. Logic cannot outshout religious opinion. And this is what it amounts to. SOme say life starts with the instant the sperm and egg meet. No consensus here. Different religions define the beginning of life differently, and the question will never be answered by mere mortals. Question: If embryonic stem cells are one of God's creations, then who is to say they are not there for us to discover ways to eliminate some diseases and undo the damage done by accidents such as paralysis? The strawman argument that embryonic stem cells have not yet resulted in a cure, would have been the kind of argument that, if taken to heat, ewould have discouraged the likes of Doctor Jonas Salk.

I do not know the answer to any of this, but I also do not see the problem since no one can define the time life begins.

Can a zygote feel pain? Can it deflect the needle on an EEG? How do we define consciousness? All questions I cannot answer, since the Creator does not directly confide in me as He does in some others.
