33. they see both as right to life issues |

in both cases. I don't agree with their position, but I don't see it as contradictory either. They believe all life is sacred, whether it's a person in a vegetative state or a zygote in a petri dish. They think stem cell research is sacrificing one life for another. It's ideologically consistent.
The point you raise is about the quality of life. That is not the right's concern in either of these cases.
I do, however, see other contradictions in their position: Principally, why Terry Schiavo above all others? Why not the little black baby in Texas whose life support was terminated yesterday against the wishes of his parents?
