Enough with the false hope.

Embryonic stem cell research cures NOTHING!

Curing things was never the real issue. The real issue was an excuse to harvest baby parts.

I'd read accounts of this a couple of years ago. Funny how it doesn't get coverage. Well, National Review had a few articles, and pro-life organizations have reported it.

Once again, Australia -- well, not to be crude, but -- cuts the crap!

Are you a doctor/researcher or do you just play one on FR?

The key is that as much as we hate to admit it, not one of us is going to live forever, not in these bodies that all seem so destine to protect.

Well of course not. It's purpose is to create another massive industry - not unlike the education industry that controls our schools - that is taxpayer funded and filled with Democrat voters.

It's the same plan, over and over again. Tax the wealth away from your political opponents and disperse it among your constituents all in the name of "social justice."

Prof Sherley, from Boston's Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), today said scientists had failed to reveal problems with embryonic stem cells that would prevent them being used in humans.

Gee, I wonder why. Is is because the scientific inquiry has been hijacked by political cause?

"EMBRYONIC stem cells turn into tumours when injected into human tissue and therefore cannot be used to treat diseases, a visiting US expert said today."

What a fitting outcome for people who have NO REGARD for life.

Who has the scoreboard? Embryonic stem cells has a negative score now.

Scientist: Racism hurt him at MIT Says key example is tenure being denied By Marcella Bombardieri and Gareth Cook, Globe Staff  |  January 14, 2005
The son of a Baptist minister, Sherley is vocal in his opposition to research using human embryonic stem cells because he thinks this amounts to sacrificing human lives. This stand puts him at odds with most of his scientific colleagues -- and once prompted a shouting match with another scientist at a faculty dinner at the Blue Room, a Cambridge restaurant, he said. [snip]

After a faculty dinner devolved into a shouting match about the relative merits of embryonic and adult stem cells, he said he was no longer invited to the dinners. Slowly, he said, he became more and more ostracized, and the atmosphere become more poisonous. .

It is interesting that a group of related articles will appear at once. If it is something like a N Kor atomic (maybe!) test this is understandible, but this one and the in vitro, ex cathedra opinion go together like they came from the same medical conference.
