At the risk of sounding judgmental it depends on what you define as a "very clean"? In otherwords one's personal and philosophical view on this issue ignoring the "right or wrong' argument.

Perhaps it goes to the fact that I m not that enlightened, or cannot think outside the box or lack the sophication to understand this issue. But it would seem to me that the act of intentionally destroying what is life or can become life ( pick your choice) is at minimum is contrary to our instinct for preservation of our species and at its worse barbaric and inhumane.

I truly have searched for some reasonable and/or logical rationale of why we would inflict this self imposed carnage on our species and for the love of me I cannot.
