Amen to that, and thanks for the thread, Dutchgirl!
Here's another link, same subject, with a link to the journal abstract where the study appeared...
Can Sight Be Restored With Stem Cells Grown on Contact Lenses?
My only beef with the article is that the fact adult stem cells were used isn't acknowledged.
Injecting foreign tissues into one's body, be they of adult or embryonic origin, just isn't "natural". It's a measure of how much the abortion agenda has taken control of the MSM-reported debate over stem-cells that the key issue of autologous vs. everything else still goes widely unreported and unnoticed by the general public.
The pro-life movement would do well to focus the real debate on this point rather than characterizing this as embryionic vs. adult stem cells. "We want to help your body heal itself" has no rebuttal. Look at the literature. All of the real stem-cell results involve autologous stems, so there's no need to fall into the abortion trap in debating this issue.
