great, so now not only can we power our cities by burning the aborted corpses of babies, we can take their blood and use it to keep ourselves younger!

This is a small step for those promoting use of Embryonic Stem Cells.

Very interesting — quite a bit of info in the article.
It won’t be necessary to take blood from the young, looks like they identified “ a protein known as growth differentiation factor 11, or GDF11, which is abundant in young mice but decreases as they grow older.”
Maybe they’ll find a way to produce that...
And it’s quite impressive that they reverse severe illnesses too:
“Subsequent studies showed these factors could also reverse age-related enlargement of the heart and improve the ability of old mice to generate new nerve cells.”

So THAT’S why Keith Richards is still alive! I heard he got an “oil change” more than once.

National Lampoon had a funny line on this involving 15 year old girls, they wouldn’t say it today.

Lev_17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.
Hmmm?

I would presume that won’t work with humans or the effects would have been noticed with hemophiliacs.

I expect the Saturday morning infomercials will be selling GDF 11 pills by the truck load in the near future.
However, from what I can find, GDF 11 is only produced in the human body and it must be injected. Perhaps a GDF 11 interveinal pump will be the ticket.

Probably shouldn’t publish this fact. Planned Parenthood will probably start a side business of sucking the blood out of aborted fetuses to sell to their elite sponsors.
