Playing God With Test-Tube Embryos

Credit :

A Christian bioethics lecturer has spoken out against new DNA surgery carried out by Chinese scientists who are reportedly creating lab-grown human embryos in order to test disease-removing techniques.

"What concerns me and actually quite a number of bio-ethicists and those who are looking and researching in this field is that what we here have is scientists who are deliberately creating human life, deliberately creating embryos. These are not embryos that have been left over as spares from fertility treatments from IVF," Dr. Trevor Stammers, Bioethics lecturer at St. Mary's University in Twickenham, told Premier.

"They've been specifically created to be experimented upon and then destroyed, which is why there are no children who were cured that the Chinese are bringing out. It's just a proof of principle and it's been gained in a way that many people would regard as being unethical."
