A Vatican official on Saturday criticized a new method of making stem cells that does not require the destruction of embryos, calling it a “manipulation” that did not address the church’s ethical concerns.
Monsignor Elio Sgreccia, the Vatican’s top official on bioethical questions, said in a Vatican Radio interview that the method of making stem cells devised by Advanced Cell Technology Inc. of California remains an in-vitro form of reproduction, which the church opposes.
