Miscarried Embryos

[Era Might]

Does the Church also condemn embryonic stem-cell research on embryos which were miscarried, not created artificially or aborted? Could this be considered similar to donating organs after death?

Era Might,

The only problem with the analogy is that [b]I[/b] donate my body or organs to science, and another can't do that for me (unless I previously expressed the desire so to do). I can't donate the body of another for research, even a miscarried embryo.

Also, embryos have the right to be buried, just as we all do. That's to be the assumed course of action to take with the remains. Hope this helps.

Yours,
Pio Nono
