(Really, there's so much information available from Google, this site and Medline that there is no excuse for posting when you're so poorly informed.)

If you had read the threads between MGHinTn and me you would have noticed that we were discussing the ethics of stem cells not the science. Showing off your knowledge about stem cells is not pertinent to the discussion I was have with MG.

It wasn't showing off knowledge, since all of the info was from a Google search at the time of posting - just the abundance of information available from a Google search.

The ethics are - or should be - inseparable from the science and should take precedence over any research and application. Do you want unethical scientists running around?

The fact of the necessity of destruction of one human's right not to be killed (or 400,000 humans' if all the frozen human embryos are used), for the hypothetical possibility of benefit to another person or persons is absolutely unethical. I don't know of any precedent for the approval of such research or application of research, do you?
