About Me

A Catholic who follows Rome & the Magisterium. I'm against gay "marriage", abortion, embryonic stem cell research, euthanasia, human cloning. Altar girls, Communion in the hand, Eucharistic Ministers and "Protestant" music in the Church doesn't bother me at all. A proud American retired submarine sailor. Our borders should be secured with a 10 ft. high fence topped by concertina wire with minefields out to 20 yards on both sides and an additional 10 yards filled with warning signs outside of that Let's get energy independent NOW! Back Israel to the max, stop appeasing followers of the Pedophile Prophet. Pro 2nd Amendment, pro death penalty, Repeal all hate crime legislation. Back the police unless you'd rather call a hippie when everything hits the fan. Get government out of dealing with education, childhood obesity and the enviornment. Stop using the military for sociological experiments and if we're in a war don't micromanage their every move. Kill your television, limit time on the computer and pick up a book. God's will be done and may He have mercy upon us all.

Texas prolife legislation SB208

SB208-Relating to the regulation of the use of human cells and tissue, including a ban on human cloning; providing penalties. The bill can be read by going here; http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/BillLookup/Text.aspx?LegSess=81R&Bill=SB208 Currently this bill is before the Health & Human Services Commission.

IMHO this bill has a serious flaw that can be found under Sec.176.151 (a) This portion of the bill statesthat "A person may donate an embryo created in the course of fertility treatment for the purpose of assisted reproduction, as defined by Section 160.102, Family Code, to be used in scientific research or to be used by an intended mother for the purpose of conceiving a child." (emphasis mine).

I urge all Texans reading this blog to contact the commission and urge the amending of this bill to delete the emphasized portion. The commission members are;

The listed senators can be contacted via the links provided.

The Bill is Shapleigh's latest attempt to re-define "cloning" in order to encourage human cloning for the creation of embryonic humans in order to destroy and experiment on them or harvest research and even commercial material from them.

In fact, any embryo created by "nuclear transplantation" using a human cell nucleus is a human clone.

Here's my blog posts on last month's news articles on successful human cloning and unsuccessful cloning using the emptied oocytes from animals:

and a review of the research actual article,

For a history on this bill, only slightly reworded this year, go on back to 2005, 2007 (see SB 413, 80th Leg)
