Thank you for your thoughtful reply and forgiving me for my male chauvainsm.

But we really shouldn't bicker between ourselves.

The debate should be directed at people such as Michael J. Fox, who is distorting the issue for political manipulation.

I guess I can understand why Michael J. Fox is taking the stand that he is. He has a horrible disease, and thinks that fetal stem cells are the cure. He has a right to his cause. I don't have Parkinson's and maybe if I did, I would see things differently.

My response to him would be that I completely understand his desire to change the political views on ESCs. I feel badly that he is suffering. I just don't agree that taking an innocent life, is an acceptable answer.

I strongly support other lines of research and I pray that a cure can be found. There are many people that die every day, while organ transplant lists. However, doctors and researchers cannot just find a donor, and murder them, so that the patient will get their organ and be cured. No life is more important than another.
