Unknown to most outside observers, from the earliest days of
embryonic stem cell research through today's latest developments,
Christian theologians have been actively involved with leading
laboratory research scientists to determine the ethical
implications of stem cell research. And contrary to popular
expectation, these Christians have been courageously advocating in
favor of research. Three of these dynamic theologians tell their
story in Sacred Cells? Why Christians Should Support Stem Cell
Research. Sacred Cells? takes readers through the twists and turns
of stem cell development, providing a brief history of the science
and an overview of the competing ethical frameworks people use in
approaching the heated debate. Each new scientific advance, from
the cloning of Dolly the sheep to the use of engineered cells in
humans, had to be carefully considered before proceeding. Rejecting
the widely held belief that the ethics of stem cell research turn
on the moral status of the embryo, the authors carefully weigh a
diversity of ethical problems. Ultimately, they embrace stem cell
research and the prospect of increased health and well being it
offers.
