GENERAL
The use of aborted embryonic cells for the development of viral vaccines must not be allowed. It is morally wrong. Some may argue that aborted embryos should not be left to waste and, since nothing can be done now that the evil of the abortion has passed, at least we can do something good with the dead embryo. This is a false argument. Two wrongs do NOT make a right! Abortion is wrong. And any use of an aborted embryo, even for medical research, is also wrong.
