Wesley Smith has made a serious bid for the 2004 chutzpah award. in a new column he complains that proponents of embryonic stem cell research using cloned embryos are playing word games in how they describe cloned embryos. This coming in the context of a year’s worth of conniving on the part of proponents of a ban on cloning for research to say they are not opposed to ‘stem’ cell research when what they mean is adult stem cell research and intentionally confusing reproductive cloning with cloning for research.
