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 |

QUOTE(DisneyPrincessKate @ Jun 5 2005, 2:50 PM) 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. You make it sound as though the researchers are going around to pregnant women, beating them senseless, and stealing their fetuses; or that the researchers are harvesting babies specifically for this purpose. That is not how they get stem cells. Embryonic stem cells usually come from embryos from fertility clinics that are going to be thrown away anyway. Why not put them to an actual use? |
