Faith - but no hope and definitely no charity.

It seems likely that stem-cell research will be severely restricted as a result of a ban on using "chimera" embryos - that is embryos created using mostly human but part animal DNA. In refusing the go-ahead for this, the Government appears to be bowing to pressure from so-called "faith groups". My father-in-law died from Motor Neurone Disease, and this is one of the conditions which this research might assist in treating. So how arrogant of these faith groups to think that their beliefs, however sincerely held, are more important than the possibility of finding a cure for this and other horrible illnesses. How dare they!
