Life has become cheap around the world, aborted babies are just a commodity to be used to make men and women look and feel younger. Those who want to oppose Bush on stem cells only have to look around the word to see the use flourishing. The Daily Mail has a list of clinics from around the world that use the stem cells from aborted babies for cosmetic purposes:
Barbados

Anti-ageing stem-cell injections made from aborted foetal tissue, £15,000 The past 12 months have seen this popular holiday resort become the stem-cell capital of the developed world, treating hundreds of patients in a year.
[…]
The clinic claims that the foetal tissue derived from elective abortions at six to 12 weeks is rich in regenerative stem cells. ‘We inject the cells taken from the liver tissue of human foetuses directly into the vein in the back of your hand,’
[…]
The results are incredible. You’ll feel and look different after a month because these cells help the body to regenerate itself. The effects last for approximately a year before it needs to be “topped up”

Moscow

Treatments range from the injection of stem cells from animals such as cows and pigs to injecting cells taken from the umbilical cords or livers of aborted human foetuses. ‘Foetal tissue has been shown to be highly rich in regenerative stem cells which, when injected into adults, helps the body fight the ageing process,’ says Dr Elena Bochkaryova.

RUSSIA and the Ukraine currently top the world abortion league, with more of the operations carried out here than anywhere else on earth. Evidence gathered by the Moscow police department has shown a growing black market in aborted foetuses, which are smuggled into Russia from the Ukraine and Georgia.
Here, poverty-stricken young women are paid 200 U.S. dollars to carry babies up to the optimum eight to 12-week period – thought to be best for harvesting stem cells. They are then sold on to cosmetic clinics.

Go read the rest here. And while you are at it, go here to see what a baby looks like at 12 weeks.
I think that I’m kind of speechless about this. The horror of it has overwhelmed me. There is something ghoulish about using the life of another to make yourself feel younger. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised given how people around the world no longer value life.
Why not reuse the tissues of aborted babies, it will just go to waste. This is the argument people use here for government-sponsored stem cell research. But the problem is that won’t be the case for very long. It won’t just be babies that the mom decides she doesn’t want, it will be babies conceived so that the mom can make some cash, as we see in this article.
