Abstract

The following paper calls for a shift of views from bioethics to bio-optics, from asking what we should do, to wondering about how things appear and are. It takes as a case study the stem cell controversy and juxtaposes its regulation in Israel and in the United States. As an ethical debate, the embryonic stem cell controversy is often cast as a dispute between liberals and conservatives, scientists and religious fundamentalists. From a bio-optical point of view, however, one may notice a surprising affinity between science and the most extreme religious groups.
