THE SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE
Many Christians, citing the sanctity of human life, not least the American right including President Bush, are against stem cell research, which has the promise to find a cure for many diseases, and thus save countless lives in the future.
Other Christians, maybe the same ones, are against the use of condoms as a birth control measure, citing once again the sanctity of human life.
Is someone who dies of AIDS contracted by unprotected sex somehow less human than a mere stem cell, which is no more human than a spermatozoa?
Is not the Christian viewpoint flawed, inconsistant, and lethal?
