Why Christians Should Support Stem Cell Research By: Ted Peters; Karen Lebacqz; Gaymon Bennett Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers Print ISBN: 9780742562882, 0742562883 eText ISBN: 9781442207714, 144220771X Format: PDF Available from $ 15.30 USD SKU 9781442207714R120 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. Additional ISBNs 9780742562899, 0742562891
