Ah, but we must not dignify the life of the embryo, lest we strip the dignity from abortion.

NOVA aired a program on Sunday 08/06/06 that was way over the line in favor of embrionic stem cells. They took a few of the main concerns voiced by conservatives, and shot them down one by one, then made outlandish claims that have so far gone unrealized.
The way they did it was to play a one sentence sound clip from the right, then present scientific evidence that refuted the offending premise. If you weren't a thinking person, this would be quite effective, but if you were thinking you'd realize they were simply setting up a one sided arguement without a scientificly based rebuttal.
As was mentioned here, there was no mention in the presentation that adult stem cells were the only stem cells that have gone beyond the promise to actually contribute to therapies to this point.
NOVA can put out some nice programming, but at times they act as disinformation specialists of the worst sort.

Christopher Reeve got CANCER from his embryonic stem cell "therapy"!!!
Susan Boutcher (sp), the Iditarod gal, just died from some blood cancer and she has stem cell "therapy" (didn't say it was adult, so that makes me think it was embryonic) and the stem cells ate her good cells and she died.
No good can come from using ABORTED EMBYROS.....God will NOT be mocked.

IT HAS BEEN REPEATED so often that it is now a mantra: "Embryonic stem cells offer the most promise for finding cures" for degenerative diseases and conditions such as Parkinson's disease and spinal cord injury. But saying something ten thousand times doesn't make it true. Indeed, the embryonic stem cell mantra has yet to be demonstrated scientifically.
Although I disagree with Bush for issuing his only VETO, to date, to squash federal funding of embryonic stem cell research, this was true long before the debate ever got to Congress. Other stem cell research projects have yielded promising results, but embryonic stem cells have never shown any particular promise and have only been "the promise of the unknown".

Embryonic stem cell research has produced pretty much nothing, so far.
On the other hand, Adult stem cell research has produced working treatments, and doesn't involve using parts from murdered babies.
