LAWSUIT TO STOP FEDERAL FUNDING OF DESTRUCTION OF EMBRYOS


Like it or not, the questions remains...Is it against freedom of religion to force taxpayers to pay for research which destroys human embryos when they believe it to be immoral and therefore, against their religion and moral principles?
A lawsuit was recently filed against Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and Francis Collins as head of the National Institute of Health in trying to stop federally funding toward embryonic stem cell research since it involves the destruction of human embryos. This lawsuit does not use freedom of religion as its basis of complaint, but rather alleges that the NIH guidelines which establish parameters to use and destroy human embryos for research are illegal since they violate the Dickey-Wicker appropriations provision.
