I copied this post and e-mailed it to the "Catholics for Bush" organization. Thanks.

For me, it depends on what KIND of cloning we are talking about...

Are we growing new skin in a petri dish to use on a burn-victem (samples to start TAKEN from that same person) or are we talking about making genetic replicas of people to harvest organs from?

Both count.

No problem. I sure hope that the Catholics for Bush are able to make ample use of this.

The kind of cell cloning law that Kerry co-sponsored is the kind that would allow stem-cells to be cloned. Even that kind the Pope has condemned, now, and in the past.
