QUOTE A San Francisco cosmetics company has ignited an outcry among pro-lifers for including an unexpected ingredient in its anti-aging creams: skin-cell proteins from an aborted fetus. Children of God for Life, a watchdog group that monitors the use of fetal material in medical products, called last week for a boycott of all treatments manufactured by Neocutis Inc., which acknowledges that the key ingredient in its product line was developed from an aborted boy. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/n...roducts//print/ Sickening. |

Why make an issue out of this? It's not like they're killing a baby for each tub.
Sure, the kid shouldn't have been aborted. But he was. Nothing's going to undo that now, so why not make use of it? |

As disgusting and cruel this is, I didn`t think it was anything new. I thought a lot of anti-aging beauty products used fetal tissues from aborted babies.

Big deal. Those fetuses are about as human as fat sucked off the butts of rich fat women.

I'm sure people see it as no different then women who put horse pee in themselves to prevent children (i.e. BCP), or eat their placentas for "health reasons."

For once I might actually be shocked. Who the heck thinks "hey, you know what'd be a great idea? Fetus-paste in a skin cream!"? It's something so outrageous it seems like it would be in the realm of satire.

Irrelevant. Just because something has the potential to grow into a human does not mean that it is human. No, but the fact that it has the genetic make-up of a human AND will grow into one does. It's as illogical to say a girl before puberty is any less of a female than one who has already went through puberty and is physically mature.

Urgh.
Do any of you have an actual reason as to why this is so terrible or are we just having another trip down Knee-Jerk Avenue? |

Urgh. Do any of you have an actual reason as to why this is so terrible or are we just having another trip down Knee-Jerk Avenue? I think people should be treated with a little more dignity and respect, even if there is some sort of controversy about whether they're "human" or not. |

@Secundus: it disrespects the dead.

I'm pretty sure corpses don't really care what people do with them. Besides, how is it "disrespectful"? You know what I think is disrespectful? Discarding someone and leaving them to rot, rather than allowing their death to accomplish some good in the world. This post has been edited by Secundus: Nov 4 2009, 04:12 PM |

Is that supposed to be a counterpoint or are you actually going to do it?
Either way it's bad. I mean that's really going to smell. And draw flies. |

Discarding someone and leaving them to rot, rather than allowing their death to accomplish some good in the world. Well your view of what is "respectful" of the dead unfortunately pits you against the rest of humanity, who have this tradition of giving the dead a peaceful rest. The corpses may not have an opinion, but the human beings who once inhabited the body most likely would want to have some say in what becomes of them. And I'd say putting their proteins inside of beauty cream is hardly "accomplishing some good in the world." |
