Romney Warns of 'Orwellian' Stem Cell Research

Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, a 2008 Republican presidential hopeful, said Thursday his administration's new restrictions on stem cell research are aimed at heading off an "Orwellian" future.

The state's Department of Public Health this week issued regulations banning the creation of embryos for research purposes.
...
"I believe it crosses a very bright moral line to take sperm and eggs in the laboratory and start creating human life," Romney told reporters. "It is Orwellian in its scope. In laboratories you could have trays of new embryos being created."

Kudos to Mitt Romney on this decision...

It's shameful that Missouri's Republican governor, Matt Blunt, refuses to see the inherent and grotesque evil in embryonic stem cell research. It's equally deplorable that others, such as former Senator Danforth, feel compelled to advocate cloning of human beings for the sole purpose of killing them for experimentation and research. Actually, it's much worse than deplorable, it's demonic.

Many prayers and acts of reparation are needed for the conversion of the hearts of those who are embracing the various anti-family, pro-death agendas we face today.
