If anyone can find a video of this, I’d sure like to see this.
Well if that’s true, then funding will dry up.
My unstudied opinion is that an embryonic stem cell desperately “wants” to become a baby. If it can’t, it becomes a tumor. That is the long and short of it.
That's quite amazing. I knew it was a lot, but I had no idea it was that many.
The fact that adult stem cells have already helped patients with more than 100 diseases and conditions, and yet the government's funding goes to embryonic stem cells , which has yet to help anyone, is so typical.
I bet she looked like she took a hit on that one. I agree. It’s time to start telling the truth.

Did they get a reaction from any California taxpayers? They were delighted to put up $3B for an Embryonic Stem Cell Research Initiative that was cooked up solely as way to poke George w. Bush in the eye after he came down against using federal money to establish any more ESC lines.
Seems to me that the good doctor just told them they were conned. But then I’m a cynic.
This guy totally nails it — anyone still after embryonic stem cells at this point may (but not necessarily) just want to kill babies. Or be intellectually incoherent. Or both.
I wrote Mr. Michael J. Fox a letter in 2006 stating that he was so much in support of embryonic stem cell research he should he impregnate his wife and then “harvest” stem cells from their unborn child.
He and his wife have 4 children so they are clearly fertile.
I told him that it would do wonders from his cause if he would step up to the plate and show everyone how it’s done.
Surprisingly he’s never answered.
Embryos will continue to be experimented with because the lure of being able to use them for "spare parts" is simply too much for some people who aren't capable of comprehending the horror of what they are actually doing.
Unfortuntely Obama has cut the federal funding that would help bring the cures from adult stem cell research.
“The problem with embryonic stem cells is that embryonic stem cells come from embryos ...but it’s very hard to control them and so they can become cancer.” Oz explained.
That’s not the right reason to oppose it. Embryonic stem cell research is wrong, not because it’s difficult or ineffective, but because it’s morally wrong. It’s no more morally acceptable to kill babies by way of an abortion to get embryonic cells for research than it would be to kill two year old children to get them. Life begins at conception.
Long overdue. When Bush addressed this issue, it was already well known that embryonic stem cells have failed to live up to any part of the hype about them. Bush was right to ban embryonic stem cell research and fund other stem cell research that has proven more promising.
Amazing and kol ha kovod to the speaker.
