Scientists at Australia's Griffith University have engineered a breakthrough in the field of adult stem cell research that's so significant, say experts, that it could render the debate over embryonic stem cell research moot. 
The results of the four year research project showed that olfactory stem cells can be turned into heart cells, brain cells, nerve cells, indeed almost any kind of cell in the body, without the problems of rejection or tumors forming, a common side effect with embryonic stem cells.

    The reason this doesn't get any press in the MSM, is that it doesn't advance the argument that unborn children aren't human beings.

    Have there been any successes with embryonic stem cells? Why kill a child for something that is not proven? Why kill a child, period?

    If this got mainstream media play...
 The great humanistic rationalization for ritualistic sacrifice to their demon god Moloch would evaporate..
 They love doing evil and calling it good..they have to put a lofty purpose on the evil they do...in order to sell it to the weak minded.
 Their goal is to desensitze and then turn the nation's values to anti God and the depravity they so love.

    Have there been any successes with embryonic stem cells?  They have been used to create cancer cells in recipients.

    Yes. They have been very successful in causing cancer tissue to develop.

    "Have there been any successes with embryonic stem cells?" No. Embryonic stem cells create tumors.

    They wish to produce and harvest embryos. That is the only reason they fight this battle so hard, and why I reject the argument that they will be destroyed anyway. Let them be destroyed then! But if they are used soon they will be created simply to harvest them and that is wrong, wrong, wrong.

A free and virtuous society, which America aspires to be, must reject practices that devalue and violate human life at any stage from conception until natural death. In defending the right to life, in law and through a vibrant culture of life, America can show a world the path to a truly humane future in which man remains the master, not the product of his technology.

    "The reason this doesn't get any press in the MSM, is that it doesn't advance the argument that unborn children aren't human beings." Exactly. Never mind Fetal Stem Cells don't work and Adult Stem Cells do. The most important value is to promote the idea that the embryo isn't human, effectiveness and the lives of adults as well, be damned.

    The Chinese used stem cells ripped from an embryo to end a man's Parkinson's symptoms; he died of teratoma growth in his brain where the stem cells were injected. Odd that the leftists societal engineers haven't tried to cite that as a 'cure'!... Since they believe with all their black hearts that lies win their goals.
