This guy is a rube..... :-) Re the process researchers are attempting to further develop: "...a single cell pulled from the <pre-blastocytes ... about the 8-10 cell stage, far smaller then the head of a pin> can be made to divide in the laboratory a create a full cell line or “colony.” Since fertility doctors often remove a single cell from embryos this age to screen for genetic defects before in vitro fertilization – researchers could theoretically just use these single cell “spares.”" This developing process (an outgrowth of years of work that produced the same genetic defect screening technology that will soon probably become standard practice in most pregnancies) works as described. To call the PROCESS a 'fraud' is quite simply a lie. (To however say that --- in this early round of testing --- the researchers misstated their actions, is accurate.) But I doubt that this fanatic rube 'Fermento', or whatever his name is, actually cares any for what is true, and what is not. ------------------------------------------------------------ "There is no place in a fanatic's head where reason can enter." --- Napoleon "The difference between a policy and a crusade is that a policy is judged by its results, while a crusade is judged by how good it makes its crusaders feel." --- Thomas Sowell
