It looks like Bush did a grand job inviting plenty of people onto the Council of Bioethics that fundamentally disagreed with his views. That’s very commendable and necessary for fruitful discussion on bioethical matters. Robert P. George, one of the members, wonders if Obama will follow that trend in his latest article on the Public Discourse titled “A Diverse Bioethics Council?”

I wasn’t aware that the current council is so diverse, and George raises some interesting questions about what it will look like under Obama. This is also nothing to be taken lightly for those who are concerned about the sanctity of human life -and not just embryonic-, especially considering how much closer we are inching to the UK and other European states and their health care systems.  Read Wesley J Smith’s blog Secondhand Smoke on more bioethics commentary.

Found this on the Website of the American College of Pediatricians about homosexual parenting and passing it on.

My friend Alan put these arguments against same sex marriage together and I believe they sum up the issue very nicely and pretty comprehensively. Let me state that I am not a homophobe (doesn’t that mean someone who is afraid of homosexuals? Why would anyone be afraid of homosexuals??) and am personally affected by it. I pray that homosexuals, just as lusters, thieves, murderers, together with any other unrepentant sinner, will repent of their sins and put their trust in Christ to be saved.
