The Real Ethics Behind the 14-Day Rule
When does life truly begin?
Science has an answer — and it might surprise you.
Before day 14, a fertilized egg is just a cluster of undifferentiated cells — alive, but not yet human in form or function.
After day 14, something extraordinary happens: the primitive streak appears — the first sign of individuality and the biological blueprint for human life.
This episode breaks down how the 14-day rule became one of the most important ethical boundaries in modern science — balancing moral respect for life with the freedom to discover.
From IVF to stem-cell research, the 14-day rule proves that science and morality can coexist without hypocrisy.

“The 14-day rule isn’t a loophole — it’s proof that moral respect and scientific truth can coexist without hypocrisy.”
