I saw a news clip earlier as I was cooking supper and didn't get the details. It was about a couple having had 9 frozen embryos accidently destroyed by the company holding them, and those responsible being charged with negligent homicide. I don't even know what country this happened in, anyone know anything about this?? I'm not a great web-researcher.

Found it, I guess I'm not such a bad researcher after all!

Though what I found is highly biased.

Whaddaya think, is the destruction of an embryo, negligent homicide? I sure think it is!

Well, this is not the proper place for debate, so I guess we should wait until this is moved to the proper forum.

 

[BlessEwe]

it is news though... but maybe may turn into debate...

Oh, I agree it is news. I also am sure it will turn into debate.

I think this is the right forum, its a current event.

The right forum for it to stand as news, the wrong forum in which to debate the moral implications.

Okay, so where then? I'd really like some input on this, I think its a pretty important topic.

I know if I had embryos frozen for future use, and they were destroyed, I would feel that those were kids of mine who had died. And I'd want someone to answer for that.

I would suggest the new General Political Discussion Forum, where we are allowed to debate, or P/M forum.

I think you're wrong. Its just a current events link like the other thousand here. They all foster debate, that's the point.

I'm lost here. Every link in this forum is debated. What? Is this forum here so that someone can throw up a link and every respondent answers: hey, thanks for sharing that!

Really that makes no sense at all.

Besides this isn't politics.
