more embryos

Eugene Volokh has a good post on his blog about the economic and political ramifications about not embracing embryonic stem cell research. I think the best part about his post is not that however, but the tone he uses--belying what I think many American's opposed to embryonic stem cell research feel--that they don't understand the science but are opposed on a visceral sense. Mainly they're confused, it's a step into the dark, tackling something they've never had to delineate in their moral ethos before, and that's scary, no matter what the verdict is.
