". The discussion of the Fiori report and its resolution has been characterised by a brutal confrontation between promoters of the exploitation of life and embryos and defenders of their humanity and therefore their integrity. This stormy debate has largely taken place on the basis of a confusion of values, confirming the historical fragility of the foundations of our humanist and Christian civilisation when faced with the combined attacks of scientism and materialism. This confusion of values in Europe and within the Member States has prevented any possibility of defining the status of the embryo, and I regret this. Although science shows that the use of adult stem cells renders the use of embryonic cells pointless, scientific thinking is determined to violate the ‘sanctity of life’ by promoting the exploitation of the human embryo. This demonstrates that the defenders of the humanity of life at all its stages of development are confronted with a real ideology which is not only dehumanising, but which is cloaked in a false humanism and realism."@en1
