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)? |

O.k. ghetosmurph, I can't read the whole thing, it's too long, but i agree with u, cuz i know ur stand. Does everyone here bleieve that we have souls? ok then, if an embryo isn'ta baby, not a person/ doesnt have a soul, then when the heck does it become one? when the mother decides to keep it? that doesnt make sense, that's like saying we're God.
and for those who don't think that an embryo shows signs of life, that's bull, as soon as the egg is fertilized it shows signs of life, there is no question about it, and for this person: "^ we're not killing potential babies..we're putting use to the ones that would have died anyway. " it is absolutely impossible for someone to decide whether an embryo will live or not, you can predict, but it is almost impossible to decide at that early of a stage, that's ridiculous! DisneyPrincessKate: RIGHT ON!!! stem cells are extremely common, they can be found in all the places she stated, we did a huge project on this at my school in biology, and they don't actually have the "healing abilities" that some have rumored them to have! Abortion is wrong also for the record, there is no justification for killing someone. And for those ppl who say its the parent's choice, think about it, if somone came up to your parents and asked them if they would donate you to research that is positively deadly, and your parents said yes, that's the same thing as the embryo being given to research, it IS a person, the only difference is that it isn't developed enough to speak for itself! "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." the exact same cells are found in the umbilical cord etc. that are found in the embryo, do your research or shut up. No offense, but I find it ridiculous that anyone can possibly see this as moral. Thank you, I'll be back, there is no way to make abortion or stem cell research moral! |
