Dear supporter,
The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) is consulting on making it easier to carry out research on human embryos. It wants to be given more discretion to trial new ‘processes’ for treatments, and for the law to be made easier to amend.
This is an attack on the sanctity of human life. Every human being, no matter how young, is made in the image of God, and life is sacred from conception (Genesis 1:27, 9:6; Psalm 51:5).
Our laws already gravely undermine the value of life by allowing experiments on early embryos, and are some of the most liberal in the world. These proposals risk more unethical experiments becoming the norm. As an organisation, the HFEA has a track record of pushing the legal and ethical boundaries.
Please respond to the consultation today. Our new guide has more information, including suggested points to make.
Yours in Christ,
David Greatorex
Head of Research
