Most of the moral problems are not problems if you don't think abortion is bad.
If a late term abortion is perfectly legal, then what's the argument against experimentation up to that age of gestation? There isn't one. Not one that has any legal logic behind it, anyway.
A society that allows abortion will have a harder time keeping the lid on this.
Wasn't trying to swing your opinion in either direction. It was merely an observation that it's a lot harder to come up with a coherent argument against this research if you also allow women to terminate inconvenient or unwanted pregnancies on a whim.
I agree, but the thing about humans is that coherent arguments are not what gets us going, appeal to either straight chemistry or more complex process in emotion does.

Sure, if it will actually be similar to abortion in the sense of getting embryos... errr, donated.
Are you trying to sell me even more on abortion? No need to, my position on it is already pretty utilitarian.
