I don't think we should bestow this guy with any great importance.  After all, even most of us secularists refuse to live their lives entirely free of irrationality.  Faith just makes turning a blind eye to that fact a bit harder.

Yeah, well, astrology was once the height of scientific inquiry as well.

Besides, your point is moot.  The church has listened to its best minds from the start, who contended that it could be done without using embryos, and supported that position.  Low and behold, they were correct.
