An Oxford University scientist has come up with the next step in the ocmmodification of human beings: organ and body part harvest from aborted children. According to LifeSite News:
An Oxford University stem cell expert has urged the use of aborted children in organ transplants as a solution to the shortage of available organs. Sir Richard Gardner has called for a feasibility study on the possibility of obtaining organs from the bodies of aborted babies.
He said, “It is probably a more realistic technique in dealing with the shortage of kidney donors than others.”
Fears that this suggestion will create a trade in aborted children have their justification in the work of US pro-life groups who have in the past uncovered the relationship between the abortion industry and the trade in aborted body parts for medical research and the creation of vaccines.
In 2005, the trade in aborted fetuses made headlines after reports came from Ukraine that newborn babies were disappearing from maternity wards to fuel the increasing demand for body parts. One Ukrainian research institute was advertising fetal body parts, such as “Foetus spleen cells,” and “fragments of foetus spine,” for sale in medical research.
I’ve had half a dozen goes at writing a response to this in the last half hour, but you know what? Sometimes an idea is so evil, or so stupid, or both, that no response is necessary.

I shudder at the coming judgement our civilization is bringing upon itself.
The Lord (in Genesis) promised that He would never destroy the entire world by flood again. But He said nothing about disease, fire, storms, earthquakes or even localized floods.
We must know that God’s wrath can only be abated for so long. We (our culure) are truly “sowing the whirlwind.”
Lord Have Mercy (the same as above but in Plain English so that God knows that we mean it-GRIN)

Something to make abortion even more profitable.
In all honesty, this is only a logical development.
Given our culture’s views and practices, why not use every available part? It’s almost a kind of recycling … To object, you must be opposed to science … you must want people to die of organ failure … /end (apalled) sarcasm
“Soylent Green is people”
When I consider that there have already been well over a billion abortions in my lifetime, I’m left at something of a loss. I think I may throw up now.

And now we see why the SON has set on the British Empire.

Hey, you guys left the British Empire a long time ago, but you may have a point, nevertheless. Here’s a story from Canada:
