Outraged Catholic lawmakers in Australia yesterday rebelled against threats of retribution by the church if they vote in favour of cloning human embryos for stem cell research.

“Maybe I’ll go to hell, but if I go to hell I’m going to do so by saving a lot of lives, because that’s what this bill is about,� Labour Party MP Tony Stewart said in a radio interview. “We don’t need a religious leader telling members of parliament what should be done.�

Lawmakers have been allowed a conscience vote free of party pressure on a bill to legalise therapeutic cloning in the state after the federal government overturned a ban on the controversial scientific procedure last year.

The new law would allow excess human embryos from in-vitro fertilisation treatment to be used to create stem cells for research into fighting debilitating diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and cystic fibrosis. “Cloning is not quite the same as abortion and the legislation for such a thing as cloning is different from actually performing cloning,� Pell said.

“But it is a serious moral matter and Catholic politicians who vote for this legislation must realise that their voting has consequences for their place in the life of the church.�
