Monique Baldwin: Pro-cloning activists shroud the truth

[Rosalinda]

The unsavourary facts about harvesting human eggs must be faced.

Foreshadowing an egg shortage, …suggested that eggs could be removed from women after their death and used to produce cloned embryos for research. Dead women would be raw material for cloning research and become mothers to embryos, to be exploited in turn, in the name of research, scientific kudos and corporate profit.
If that doesn’t already take the yuk factor to a new level, it’s now emerging that senator Kay Patterson,[Australia] the sponsor of the cloning bill, wants researchers to be able to help themselves to eggs from dead female fetuses as well… The bill allows scientists to “create human embryos using precursor cells from a human embryo or a human fetus, and use such embryos”. As defined in the existing legislation "precursor cell means a cell that has the potential to develop into a human egg (ovum) or human sperm…

A few extra steps and clever tinkering in the laboratory may fool the public but it is hubris to think one can fool God.
