The Human Cloning Ban that Wasn't a Human Cloning Ban

| 1 Comment

A new "ban" on human cloning has been introduced in the United States Senate. From what I've seen it hasn't gotten much press but maybe it will in the future. It's co-sponsored by Dianne Feinstein and Orrin Hatch.

S. 1520, whose text is here, is entitled The Human Cloning Ban Act of 2005. Sounds good, huh? It's not.

By reading the language of the "cloning ban" you can easily see that it doesn't ban human cloning at all. It merely bans and provides penalties for the implantation of a human clone in a uterus or a uterus like device.

How do they get around calling a piece of legislation a "human cloning ban" when it doesn't ban human cloning? That's easy. Just create a new and completely inaccurate definition for the term "human cloning."

There are two Cloning Bills opposing each other, and will be hitting the Senate Floor around the same time (I think in Sept.)


I have met and spoke personally with Senator Brownback (Rep. Kansas) just last week about his Cloning Bill, S. 658. (To read a news article about the Bill go to-- http://www.thefactis.org/default.
aspx?control=ArticleMaster&aid=177
&authid=12


To read the Bill itself go to:
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/
bdquery/z?d109:s.00658:


Senator Brownback made it quite clear that the Feinstein-Hatch Bill is simply a "Clone & Kill" bill. (Allowing for the cloning of a human for 'therapeutic' reasons, but "killing" the viable zygoat (embryo) at it's earlist stages of development, not allowing it to grow to term, but using that clone in it's few days (or week or two) of life for harvesting stem cells from it.


It's astonishing to see the loads of mis-information that is being circulated out there on the Feinstein-Hatch Bill, and how the media is pumping it up to be so "wonderful" and then absolutely no media coverage is being donated to the opposing Bill of Sen. Brownback's. So typical though of the left-wing media.


Sen. Brownback is in need of much support for his Bill which bans ALL human cloning PERIOD--Not even for stem cells research.


I highly recommend all those who are pro-life to call and e-mail their Senators before September not to support the Finstein- Hatch Bill but to throw all support behind Brownback's Bill (S.658) and to spread the word (launch a Blitzkreig of e-mails & phone calls); Sam can sure use the help and grassroots spreading of this word on this Bill!


Sen. Feinstein has gained support from 140 patient & reseach organizations, 40 Nobel Laureates, 2 Nat. Academy of Science experts, while Sen. Brownback is traversing the country speaking the best he can to pro-life organizations, and to the USCCB (United Council of Catholic Bishops) to gain support on his Bill.
