do you support stem-cell researching? why or why not?
should federal funding be given to these researchers? do you support embryonic or adult stem cells (or both)? |

we watched a movie on stem cell research about 2 weeks ago in morality. it stated that:
-stem cells taken from embryos are not nearly as useful as they thought they would be -stem cells are very very common -they can be found in: placenta, umbilical cords, and fat (america has enough of that!) so, why are we killing potential babies when we can get stem cells that are more useful from a source that america has in huge abundance. stem cell research is good, it can help and should be funded, but there's no sence in destroying embryos for it |

Could that possibly be the reason that the video was arguing against stem-cell research? ![]() You can only do so much with other parts (umbilical cord, placenta, etc.) Embryos have the most potential for finding cures. Would you rather save one life and kill millions of others? That would be messed if you'd rather save an embryo rather than millions of humans. An embryo is an embryo. A fetus is a fetus. A baby is a baby. Period. |
