Rarely if ever does the MSM point out that the really promising work with stem cells is done with adult and embryonic stem cells, not those from destroyed human embryos.

Well, the most of the MSM can’t tell the difference between embryonic and adult stem cells. For example this article discusses the use of placental stem cells which are similar to adult stem cells and don’t require the destruction of an embryo.

All the known promising cures and treatments involving stem cells utilize adult stem cells. Embryonic stem cells have not produced any promising treatments. In fact the tests done on animals with embryonic stem cells have resulted in high instances of cancer in the animal subjects.
