Chinese Scientists Use New Technology To Clone 5 Human Embryos

There was a time when human cloning was only a reality in really bad science fiction movies, but that time is officially over. Thanks to a new breakthrough, scientists in China have successfully cloned five human embryos.

So how is this done?

This new technology involved taking human cells, usually from the skin of a donor, and injecting them into a human egg.

This goal of this procedure according to the Chinese scientists is to create embryonic stem cells. Stem cells are cells that have the ability to grow into any type of tissue in the body. Many doctors and researchers around the world believe that embryonic stem cells can aid them in finding cures for many common diseases.

However, this technique is also controversial because the removal of stem cells always leads to the destruction of the cloned embryo.

For scientists in communist China, the destruction of the embryo is not a problem because they do not believe that life begins until after birth.

So they don't feel any guilt at all over destroying those children.

Embryonic stem cell research is also getting a lot of attention in the United States.

Just hours after Barack Obama was inaugurated, the FDA approved a scientific stem cell study that will use human embryonic stem cells.

Embryonic stem cell research has been a huge issue in recent presidential campaigns, but now with this FDA approval and with President Obama in office, this research is likely to begin as early as this upcoming summer.

This initial research will test whether embryonic stem cells are safe to use in spinal injury patients.

These embryonic stem cells come from four or five day old embryos, which have the ability to turn into any cell in the body.

However, there is one huge problem.

When these stem cells are removed from the embryo, the embryo is destroyed.

That is why this research has been so controversial.

Because it kills babies.

This is just another sign that the United States cares very little about life or about obeying God.

We create human embryos and we do whatever sick things we want to with them.

There was an article in USAToday the other day that left us totally stunned.

The article described how there are approximately half a million frozen embryos sitting around in storage in fertility clinics across the United States.

Half a million frozen babies.

Just sitting there.

According to USAToday, only about two-thirds of the "owners" of these embryos said they were ever likely to use them.

So what is going to happen to all of the leftover embryos?

According to the article, more than half of the "parents" of these embryos responding to a survey said that they were "very unlikely" to donate their "extra embryos" to another couple trying to have a baby.

What the survey did find was that the most popular option was donating the embryos for "scientific" research.

How sick is that?

Just think about that.

There are already a half million frozen babies sitting around in clinics and that number is increasing all the time.

A huge portion of these embryos will never be used by the "parents", and the most popular option for "disposing" of these embryos appears to be donating them for "research".

The truth is that the United States has rejected the value of human life in a multitude of ways.

America has thrown God's ways to the side and has embraced their own "wisdom" in the name of convenience.

It is time for America to wake up and to realize the tremendous sins against human life that are being committed all across the nation:
