stem-cell research Options

[smile4me]

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)?

[sammi rules you]

any possible theory for evolution has been proven wrong

well now that just stopped me from believing any of these "facts" that come from you, because that is so far from true. if anything, as days pass, evolution is being more and more proven to be true. might wanna get your facts straight.

and ghettosmurf, the embryos being used do NOT have the potential to live because they don't have a womb to be implanted into to make them living.

now kiddies, let's go over the qualifications for organisms to be living things:

Living things are made of cells.
Living things obtain and use energy.
Living things grow and develop.
Living things reproduce.
Living things respond to their environment.
Living things adapt to their environment.

i've bolded the characterstics an embryo has without the help of a host womb. embryos do not obtain and use energy (or food). embryos cannot grow and develop without a host. embryos cannot reproduce themselves. embryos do not have the capability to respond or adapt to their environment.

now, for an organism to be considered a living thing, it must have all of those characteristics. therefore, an embryo in a petri dish is not even close to being considered living.

Like I said, I am for evolution, I think it does happen, however, I do believe that God guided it all, all I think is that some people are in too much of a hurry tto prove evolution, the proof will present itself, alot of the stuff that exist in biology books has been proven as wrong, but still tought, I may have been a little general with my previous statement. I'm sorry, but there have ben things proven wrong that are still tought as fact. I didn't mean to be so general.

Oh,btw just cuz its kind of a heated debate in here, that doesnt mean we can't all be friends in the other forums and such right? just trying to keep some peace.

However I still do think stem cell research is wrong. That's my final stand, I didn't reeally read any of the recent arguments, but that's my final stand and I'm done with this debate. Thanks!
