GOMEZ FAJARDO, Carlos A. Human embryos' manipulations: some objections. Iatreia [online]. 2008, vol.21, n.1, pp.75-82. ISSN 0121-0793.
Ethics is a practical knowledge, oriented to "eupraxis", the good action. Prudential medical actions must behave respectfully toward human life in conditions of fragility. Not all things and actions that are technically possible are correct in terms of morality. Human embryos are members of our species; in the process of applying embryo manipulation techniques many of them are deliberately conducted to death. Such actions are rationally objectionable on an anthropological basis.
