A certain amount of politicking is going on here. I am sorry at the lamentable performance of the Fine Gael Party on this issue. The reading of statements by Fr. Doran into the record by some party spokespersons, in regard to the embryo being a distinct human individual, was done without conviction and solely for political purposes. This is a great pity. The Fine Gael Party will never recover its political standing until it gets a bit of genuine idealism.
