"Too Close To God?"

The Anchoress links to a story in the New York Times about embryonic stem cell research in which the cells were implanted into the brains of some patients who have Parkinson's Disease. The results were nightmarish. The chief researcher stated that there should be no more research done on humans. The Anchoress wonders if the embryos are just "too close to God," as the cells caused terrible uncontrolled twitching of various body parts. There is no date on the New York Times story. The Denver Post regularly carries articles from the New York Times, but somehow missed this one. But its July 21 editorial page did not fail to throw this in the face of President Bush when he came to Denver today.
