Regenerative and Reproductive Medicine and Abortion

[Person Man]

Is wanting to defund or criminalize these activities actually based on these things being the same as abortion?

SCNT? What's that stand for>

And how would Reproductive Cloning, creating life, be similar in any way to abortion? Even if you were against both, you'd have to be against both for different reasons.

[Person Man]

But opposition to them is generally tied together. SCNT is where you just clone cells.

All three are equivalent to abortion, as is the disposal of excess embryos from IVF.  Whether you believe any of the should be legal depends in part upon one's views on abortion shortly after conception.  There may be reasons other than abortion to be opposed to some of these even if you don't believe human life begins at conception, but if you do believe that, then all of these are morally repugnant.
