Currently there is yet another court battle about the use of human embryonic tissue for research.
The controversy is centered upon whether or not an embryo is human.
Since the embryos used are going to be destroyed, using their tissue is exactly the same as organ transplants from the dead.
You're not killing an embryo to use it for research, you are using a dead embryo to supply research which will save many lives, just as you are using the organs of a dead accident victim to save lives.
The matter of humanity is irrelevant.
If you're against transplants and the use of corpses for medical research, then say that, don't try and confuse the issue!
