Embryonic stem cell research will end, whether the Obama Administration wishes it too, or not. Why? It’s not good science.

Here’s the thing. The special deal with embryos is that their cells are easily pluripotent - able to change into whatever cell is needed. That comes with some powerful drawbacks. First, those cells are also immature and much more often that not, grow wildly out of control when manipulated. The result is a form of cancer. In addition, there are serious host/rejection issues if actually used in another human.

A few years ago, scientist developed a way to use viral load transfer to make adult stem cells pluripotent. It’s not perfect and has problems of its own. Then, THIS MONTH, at the same time Obama is making his embryo stem cell ruling, scientists have figured out a much cleaner and easier way to make adult stem cells pluripotent.

Pluripotent adult stem cells mean that treatments can be based on your own cells - no rejection, and it means those treatments are far less likely to cause cancer.

Embryonic stem cell research is simply passe science. There are dozens of stem cell treatments coming on-line and none of them are based on embryonic stem cells; all of them are related to adult stem cells.

Currently, the only real reason to USE embryos is that so much funding, for political reasons, require the use of embryos, that using them is necessary to get project funding. In this way, it is the Democrats holding back true science. In true Democrat fashion, they loudly and wildly accuse of that which they do - use science for political advantage, in this case to promote a culture of death to cheapen the value of pre-born life.

Obama’s decision is a travesty. Don’t get me wrong. It’s just that science will soon bypass this immorality because it simply doesn’t work. The problems with making embryos into effective treatments far outweigh the increasingly attainable work of making adult stem cells pluripotent.

Who knew that the world wouldn’t and couldn’t be designed in such a way to allow such immoralities to become effective treatments, after all?

I did.

I support stem cell treatments because the have the potential to be potent cures. I don’t support embryonic stem cell research because they don’t have that potential - and they’re immoral.

The wonders of God’s miraculous creation, and His
almighty power and perfection are awesome.

And folks still refuse to accept that when a pregnancy
is artificially ended, a series of processes occur that
often lead to potential health problems down the road for
the former mother due to the abrupt hormonal changes.

Nope, that’s not allowed to be discussed in the raging
pursuit of eliminating an inconvenient child.
