“I believe that’s what Ba’al worshippers thought ~ that the death of the innocent would improve their lives.”

I agree. Whether you call it child sacrifice, abortion, suicide bombing, or embryonic stem-cell research, the result is the same — a lost future.

That is partially true. But there are many new treatments that can potentially reduce the risk of rejection. If organs can be successfully transplanted, by a combination of tissue typing and immunosuppression, then embryonic stem cells can be successfully introduced as well. It is only a matter of time.

I have little doubt the folks marketing antirejection drugs would like that, but why not just use the patient's own cells and avoid the whole mess?

Follow thw money.

As for me, given the choice of debilitation or death versus killing an offspring or someone else's offspring, I would choose the former rather than live on with the knowledge that I only lived or was healed by the death of another who was innocent. YMMV.

FWIW....here’s where it starts.....

Transplanted adult stem cells have been found to reverse paralysis associated with spinal cord injuries in lab rats

Well, if they enacted stricter seat-belt rules for rodents, many of these injuries wouldn't happen in the first place...
