Ryan
Anderson, in a post at First Things, exposes media
distortion of the recent ethical stem cell breakthrough in the New York
Times. He also shares this excellent quote from Japanese stem cell
researcher Dr. Shinya Yamanaka.
“When I saw the embryo, I suddenly realized there was such
a small difference between it and my daughters,” said Dr. Yamanaka, 45, a
father of two and now a professor at the Institute for Integrated Cell-Material
Sciences at Kyoto
University. “I thought,
we can’t keep destroying embryos for our research. There must be another way.”
