Some of those were great. I loved these parts:

When talking about the brain implant thing: "This technology clearly isn't going to stay limited to the disabled. " And "How will a society already plagued by obesity and sedentary lifestyles adjust to the invention of the mind controlled pudding cannon? "

Or this one: "In 2005, Lee Spievack, a man working in a Cincinnati hobby store, sliced off the tip of his finger as he was showing a customer how you can lose a finger when dealing with a model plane's motor. This is either an ironic accident or the single most badass thing any retail associate has ever done to sell a customer."

Yeah, never mind all the lives that were probably lost or unnecessarily kept in suffering while we waited for this, admittedly incredible, scientific breakthrough. As long as we pander to a large voting group’s loud superstitions.

So you like the idea of slaughtering children because they're inconvenient- and then harvesting their corpses...

Hmmm, since you ask, no, I don't like those things. Interesting segue... I thought we were talking about fetuses?

Yes, I guess it is almost like ‘how big is a pile of stones?’ But, a fetus is most certainly less sentient than a chimp or dolphin, probably less than a dog, and probably less than a cow, yet we don’t treat those things with a great deal of respect.

Also, I should have picked up on this before, but most stem cells (I believe) don’t come from fetuses, but instead come from embryos, which are even further down the spectrum.

Also, most abortions aren’t because of an ‘inconvenience.’ But that is a debate for the abortion topic, which I’m happy to open up again.
