"We have a very secular government which has lost all sense of morality. Anything that may be scientifically useful is promoted without any ethical consideration". This is the harsh comment made to SIR by Greg Clovis, director of "Human Life International UK", a Catholic association of the pro-life movement, about the act on hybrid embryos, which was approved yesterday by the British Parliament, despite the opposition of the Catholic Church and a large part of the other Christian Churches. Under the new law, animal/human embryos can be generated, and a child can be conceived without a father. "The government wants to enable scientists to generate cloned embryos which are half animal and half human explains Clovis , a category of sub-humans that can be used as materials to the benefit of other members of the human family. There is also the possibility, by introducing half human-half animal embryos, that some diseases can be transmitted from animals to humans, but this risk is neglected". "The government has invested a lot in this research, because it hopes Great Britain will be the first country to reap its benefits. Unfortunately he concludes , no one says that adult stem cell research has led to 73-75 different research methods, while embryo cell research has led to nothing and it might never do".” ” ” “
