If a zygote is not human and not life, then why use stem cells from this supposedly non-human life, to give life to others?
It is life, it is human material, but it is not "a human" life, as it doesn't meet the criteria of human life used for determination of time of death.
Thus using stem cells is no different than an organ transplant.
With no intervention, a zygote will eventually become a child in a healthy pregnancy.
With absolutely NO intervention over 2/3rds will fail to become children. Of those born, many are NOT "healthy" - many are barely able to breath and pump blood. Our ability to intervene in order to help failing fetuses survive until birth is very limited.
Whatever it is that gives us the privilage to create life, we should respect it, and not abuse it.
But the desire to create life is not always a part of the picture. Many times it is about having an orgasm, particularly when the education on sex is so poorly managed that many kids do not know the facts.
If the choice made was to have sex, the choice was not made to have a kid.
That is an essential difference.
Enjoy.
