There were some experimental trials done in Sweden (quite a few years back now) using "harvested" (state controlled socialist abortion mill) stem cells in Parkinson's patients. It was an absolute disaster. The Neurosurgeons concluded that the results were Frankensteinian. Imagine isolating a stem cell and taking a real wild a** guess as to it's function. After surgery you find out that you have the equivalent of a finger nail mass growing in your brain (one of the patients resulting in death).

Five of the eight surgeries were failures. Three of the patients died. What truth down the road are you interested in? The Neurologists and Neurosurgeons I know (many) refer to the stem cell controversy as political medicine. Ethics aside, none of them see any future in it.

If you have some ideas, I will pass them on to these "ill informed specialists".

From MGHinTn:

America doesn't seem to care that such exploitation is cannibalism, so perhaps they'll react to being lied to and disdained by not being given the facts on adult stem cells.

We were talking about the ethics of stem cell research not the science. Sometimes you have to read through the thread before you realize what bent the discussion is taking before you attack someone. I was being rhetorical when I asked him about Dobson's knowledge of the future. I am for stem cell research. I don't consider it cannibalism as he does.
