Like many of you I am still reading up on this subject. I have always been against any stem cell research and of course I am against government funding of such research. If we allow stem cell research (in the private sector) what happens next?
Are you against Adult Stem Cell research too? If so, why?
There are over 100 different types of stem cells in the adult human body. I think of them as little machines that fix stuff. (I do not have such warm and fuzzies about embryonic stem cells though ~ they seem to be your fundamental neuron with a decided propensity to turn into cancer).
Be sure and make a distinction between unethical embryonic stem cell research that depends upon the destruction of human embryos and ethical, non-embryonic stem cell research that does not destroy human beings at the earliest stage of life.
There is a huge difference.
