Wesley J. Smith on Leon Kass on National Review Online: "Kass eloquently and forcefully (says) that human life has intrinsic moral value simply because it is human. This flies in the face of the predominate ideology of contemporary bioethics that disdains human exceptionalism as arbitrary, irrational, human-centric, and indeed, an act of discrimination against animals known as 'speciesism.' "
I can see why his opinion has so much difficulty being universally accepted. It is a great hope, but he has abosolutely no evidence or can give no credible indication why it would be so. It is potentially merely a cheap shot.
