Abortion-Derived Skin From Unborn Babies Used to Treat Burns
LAUSANNE, August 18, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Swiss scientists at the University Hospital of Lausanne have used the skin of aborted babies to treat eight children with deep second and third-degree burns.

The online edition of The Lancet reports that Patrick Hohfield and colleagues used skin that had been donated by parents of the aborted child to create a “bank” of skin tissues for grafting. The skin cells, they write, could be used to grow several million sheets of skin, each measuring 9cm by 12cm.

Patches of foetal skin tissue were placed over the wounds left by burns, and then bandaged. The wounds closed within a fortnight.

The use of aborted baby parts is not new. Body parts of aborted children are highly prized by researchers for a number of different experimental applications including for cosmetic testing. Mark Crutcher of Life Dynamics, the group that first exposed the practice, says that the abortion industry is developing new methods of killing children so that more of the body is preserved intact so the parts can be more readily re-sold to research firms.

Crutcher told LifeSiteNews.com that the logic is inescapable. “Once you cross the line, where you see a child as a commodity, something you can remove if you have the money to do it, then this is a natural extension.”

The Church has stated many many times. That deriving good from an evil does not forgive the evil and is not acceptable.

They have been making skin from living humans for years. No need to use dead babies for this.:banghead:

Was the feotus aborted to provide skin? If so, I quite agree with you.

But if it was incidental then the evil was done already and this is not relevant.

And I wonder…do the paents care?

It does not matter whether the abortion was done for the skin or not,you can not use human beings as commodities.This is not good and it will create a market, and I fear if this keeps up clinics will pay women to have abortions at a certain stage of pregnancy to secure the “needed” part.:eek: :mad: :eek: :crying:
 
I understand the Nazis make some nice soap during WWII that kept you clean and free of infection. Did that justify murdering the Jews?

No it didn’t Gilliam and thankyou,indeed you put it in perspective:nope:

The same basic underlying philosphy that justified many of the Nazis actions during WW II are justifying the Actions of the supporters of the Culture of Death now, and will justify worse in the near future.

Once you’ve dehumanized someone, it becomes easy to do the same to their defenders. Once that’s done, it’s not that large a step to see those who’ve been dehumanized sharing the fate of those who are already being “eliminated”. I think the PP cartoon we’ve been objecting to is evidence of that,

The Abortionists and their supporters are desparate for ANYTHING that will support the continued slaughter of INNOCENT BABIES, even when the tissue in question could probably be obtained without harming the baby in the uterus!

Of course, they so much want to kill the baby, they wouldn’t think of that! That would require a desire to PRESERVE LIFE to think like that!

Blessed are they who act to save God’s Little Ones, Michael

The baby being aborted was an evil. Use of its parts is evil no matter what the cause. A child is not a commodity for use by others.

Just because it was a past evil does not make it less of an evil.

IMHO The parents of this baby need prayers. The child that was murdered should have been given a burial not a blender.

GOD BLESS

Though I think stem-cell research for medical treatment is dreadful mother might be interested in this…

This article makes me wonder if many of those women that had abortions are missing out on the benefits of carrying the child full term. Since the cells cross over from child to mother then can it be that those that abort are missing out on the benefits?

How many aborted babies will need to be “used” to provide the empirical evidence that is needed to prove or disprove this theory?

The birth of a child should not be devalued by allowing “designer” babies to cure others. How many other babies have to die to get an exact match?

Another thought. Can the abortions that have been preformed and the lack of those “cells” in the mother be one of the reasons that more women are getting cancer and having hear attacks younger? Just another thought for research.

While I am not sure about prayers, not burial, I am now led to wonder …if I died through some evil act, but my death revealed a cure for cancer, who would use it?

Well, stem-cells are produced from a very early point in the process so it seems reasonable that the mother could be ‘infected’ at any time from conception. Thus it seems possible that a woman who has had 4 abortions would have as many stem cells as a mother.

Your logic is interesting. Who can we ask?

Why not burial? Is this not a dignitfied way to say that the child existed and is now being told good bye?
 
All I ever hear about is that abortions are used for some medical purpose. What about miscarriages? Miscarriages are accidental abortions, and women can’t help having them. If it is legitimate to donate our own organs after we die, why wouldn’t it be legitimate to donate the skin from a miscarried baby so that another baby who had been burned could live? It is a terrible thing to have abortions so that the baby can be used for healing others. Using miscarriages for this purpose would put the whole thing in a different moral light.

The same thing may be true of stem cell research.
