Christians Urge Action Against 'Destructive' Embryology Bill

http://www.christianpost.com/article/20081011/christians-urge-action-against-destructive-embryology-bill.htm

[The Christian Post] 11 Oct 2008--Pro-life Christian groups are appealing to Christians to pray and take action to stop legislation that will liberalize the abortion law and give the green light to the creation of animal-human hybrid embryos.

The United Kingdom's House of Commons will vote on the Human Fertilization and Embryology (HFE) Bill on Oct. 22 after having passed a second reading in May by a 340 to 78 vote.
Pro-life groups are concerned over provisions in the bill that remove “the need for a father” for children born as a result of In Vitro Fertilization treatment, and that allow the creation of human-animal hybrid embryos for the purposes of research and “savior siblings” to help treat seriously ill brothers and sisters.
