I don't see why people don't support stem cell research. The things that can be done with it are amazing! Yes they use human cells, but if they used cells from already dead babies what is the deal?
If you had a some massive organ break down and the only thing that can cure you is stem cells. I think you would have a different opinion than you did before.

imo, a fetus is not a human, it is not alive, it does not have a "soul". it is in the woman, being parasitic to the mother, in literal terms. therefore, there is no harm in "killing" something that is not even alive yet. it has the potential, but history proves there must be sacrifices for the better good in certain occasions. stem cells are the key.

I dunno, this is a tough topic. From one perspective I'd say it's still living, and scared of what could come out of this. Especially with our gov't messin things up enough.
Just because it has 'good' benefits doesn't mean it couldn't be used for bad as well.
I think people should just own up to dieing, it's a part of life.

But I can only imagine what it would feel like to be dieing of some type of bone disease yet knowing it could be cureable.

The only problems I see with stem cell research, is the reduction of disease and the longevity provided. Our population continues to spiral out of control and we're only attempting to increase this rate.
