I am a special consultant to the CBC, and hence, have seen how hard its staff works to bring forth important educational information in the fields of biotechnology and bioethics. Among its enterprising approaches are documentaries. The CBC’s first film was Lines That Divide, an in-depth look at the  the human cloning and embryonic stem cell controversies—featuring yours truly as one of the talking heads. Now, coming soon, Eggsploitation, an expose of the dangers of human egg extraction for IVF and cloning research.  I haven’t seen it yet, but when I do, I’ll report here.  Oh yes, I am told I am in this one as well.

Dear Reader,

We launched the First Things 2023 Year-End Campaign to keep articles like the one you just read free of charge to everyone.

Measured in dollars and cents, this doesn't make sense. But consider who is able to read First Things: pastors and priests, college students and professors, young professionals and families. Last year, we had more than three million unique readers on firstthings.com.

Informing and inspiring these people is why First Things doesn't only think in terms of dollars and cents. And it's why we urgently need your year-end support.

Will you give today?
