This is @Right_to_Life's most deceptive statement of all. The cells are not "tissue." Tissue is made of more than cells. These cells have been replicating in culture for 55+ years. It's unlikely that a single protein or DNA molecule from the original tissue remains.https://twitter.com/Right_to_Life/status/1006529874557915136 …

These cells came from the child. They didn't spontaneously generate. You seem to magically believe that because the cells divide in culture that they no longer were part of the child who was electively aborted to create the cell line, and that patients therefore should be misled.

Would you refuse a heart transplant from a murder victim? You would deny this child the opportunity to make their death mean something, to save the lives of thousands of children all over the world?
