Today in Britain it has been announced that scientists will be able to go ahead with work to produce babies which have three parents. This is proposed to give mothers who have mitochondria which produce diseased or handicapped children, a chance to have children using the greater part of their genes, but with the pro-nuclei removed and placed in an embryo from a donor woman which has healthy mitochondria . In fact a fourth parent is also involved as the donor egg has to be fertilised. The donor embryo (and who is the sperm donor for this? Of course it could be the second parent) as I was saying the donor embryo has the nuclei, the part containing most of the gene material,discarded. A perfectly healthy human being is discarded; of course with the experimenting in this area which has obviously already gone on, many little human beings have been discarded already.
I believe that a human being is present from the moment of conception. A God given human being and we will be called to give account for all the murders we as individuals or as society have committed under the guise of helping people to have healthy children.
How concerned is the scientist with giving people healthy children? I fear the scientist is more concerned with experimenting for experimenting’s sake.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
