Catholic Official: New Study Provides No “Ethical” Road to Stem Cell Research

From the USCCB's Office of Media Relations:

WASHINGTON (August 24, 2006) - Reacting to a new report in the journal Nature, claiming to show an “ethical” way to obtain stem cells from human embryos, an official of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops says this study has been misrepresented in early news reports. “This experiment left no embryos alive, and solves no ethical problem,” says Richard M. Doerflinger, Deputy Director of the Secretariat for Pro-Life Activities of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
