There was a National Institute of Health meeting that discussed the ethics of experimenting on human embryos.
Diane Irving, professor of philosophy , DeSales School of Theology, referred the panelists to her 400 page dissertation, which analyzed 23 articles claiming that “human personhood appears at some point after conception.” When she began her research, she expected to agree with the articles. However:
“To my own amazement, I discovered that in all 23 arguments, the science was incorrect, the philosophy was historically incorrect or indefensible and none of the conclusions followed logically from the premises.”
Richard Doerflinger , “the Human Embryo Research Panel: Creating Life to Destroy It”
Here are some quotes from medical textbooks and scientists saying that life begins at conception.
