The Sanctity of Life

I am perplexed.  A woman refuses covid vaccine on religious grounds because stem cells were used in its development and she believes in the Sanctity of Life.  Doesn't the Sanctity of Life also cover hew own life and that of the kidney donor who was kept "alive" until the organ was harvested?

Maybe there's linear pattern to her logic, or she's conflicted, or confused, or a super-compartmentalizer... or blithely hypocritical.

She's just repeating bits she was told without a clue as to what they mean or if they go together.

Re: The Sanctity of Life

This is an interesting crossroad in our culture. I'd assume it used to be Christians were a preferred group when it came to transplants. They would have been ideal patients as non-hell-raisers and rule followers. Choosing the vaccine as the line in the sand rather than one of the countless other medical advancements looks hypocritical but I would argue that the actually have no idea and are actually being manipulated by mostly irreligious media.
