It won't be long before scientists will be able to grow body parts, using embryos as a starting point. Probably the first organ to be grown will be the liver. Or, perhaps, brain matter, in order to treat Parkinsons disease.

It is a fact, that the best place for an embryo to form, is inside a woman's womb.

I can envision many women volunteering, in order to save many lives, and relieve suffering. But, there will still be a shortage of volunteers.

If politicians in Washington are successful in getting control over woman's reproductive systems, it doesn't take much of a step to force women to host body parts for men.

Some might say that this is not possible, and could not happen in America.

Well.... look at what is happening to the rights of women right now. Partial birth abortions (PBA) are used to save the lives of women. When a badly deformed fetus cannot be birthed safely, there is no other choice but a PBA. Without a PBA, women face dangerous surgical procedures that are far more dangerous than a PBA, especially if the woman is in weakened condition because of the deformity.

To put a woman thru a dangerous procedure, who is already mentally and physically tortured because of having to carry a deformed fetus, is inhuman.

But, many politicians want to control a woman's reproductive system, by wanting to ban PBAs. Once they get that power, there is no doubt that they will be able to get more control over women's wombs.
