The Boston Globe on Stem Cells - Not Making Sense

| No Comments

Matthew Eppinette of World's 2BHuman blog points me in the direction of this error filled editorial by the Boston Globe in favor of the embryonic stem cell research and human cloning.

A few highlights:

"But by any reasonable definition, embryos at the earliest stage of development are not human beings,..."

Hmmm.... They are organisms who have human parents and human DNA. Human beings sounds like a reasonable definition to me, not to mention experts in embryology and embryology textbooks. I guess the definition provided by science textbooks and experts in embryology isn't "reasonable" for the journalists of the Boston Globe.

"Frist, a physician, knows that disease knows no delay, and stem cell treatment has the potential to alleviate much suffering."

I wonder if they would have pointed to Frist's medical expertise and opinion before he officially came out in favor of this bill. I also wonder why they didn't consult the expertise and opinion of Congressman Dave Weldon who also happens to be a medical doctor.
