Mr. President: Taxpayer Funding of Embryo Killing is Inappropriate and Immoral

WASHINGTON, Mar. 10 /Christian Newswire/ -- As promised, President Barack Obama yesterday signed an executive order opening up the restrictions on taxpayer funding for embryo-destroying stem cell research (ESCr).
Obama had publicly toyed with the idea of opening ESCr funding though the legislative process before settling on the use of an executive order. The president has also formally begun the process for rescission of the recently passed HHS Conscience Regulations for pharmacists, doctors, nurses and other health professionals.
Pharmacists For Life International (PFLI) condemns this inappropriate and immoral use of presidential power in the strongest terms. It can never be moral or ethical to kill one set of humans with the ostensible intent of healing other patients.
Current science has shown that embryonic stem cells offer little or no therapeutic value and have even shown to be dangerous and deadly to the end user. Adult stem cells, on the other hand, have shown great promise and recently had more favorable studies published with significant therapeutic advantages. All the latter were done using existing adult cells, without harm or destruction to tiny human embryos.
The Carnegie Model of stages of embryology and the preponderance of all scientific data over hundreds of years clearly show embryos are unique individual new humans, different from mom and dad with their own unique set of 23 pairs of chromosomes. All embryos require is nourishment, time, and love to come to fruition, contrary to the mendacity and deception of some fake "science" and, now, the extremist anti-life regime of Barrie Hussein Obama.
American needs reasoned science and much prayer at this juncture in its history as the government takes an active stand against life, with the overt funding of the Culture of Death, rather than protecting and nourishing all human life, born and preborn.
