I am very much opposed to using tissue (or anything else) from aborted babies. First, because the process begins witrh a grisly crime (killing the baby). Second, using such tissue and body parts will inevitably lead to payment for all such items, leading to the exploitation of women and girls who will become manufacturers of babies and baby parts. I cannot imagine a scenario which would be more damaging to everyone involved in it.
