[Paul C. Jesup]

The reason stem cell research is so important – and subject to so much hype -- is that stem cells can replace or heal damaged tissue and cells in the body to cure a variety of diseases. Father Pacholczyk said the Church does not oppose research using stem cells provided they come from sources that do not require the destruction of human embryos.

It sounds like the Catholic Church is okay with Adult Stem Cell research.

I am glad someone finally explained the difference between Adult Stem Cells and embryonic stem cells.

Yes they are OK, with adult stem cell research and have been saying it all along, but you won't hear anything about it, nor the differences between embryonic stem cell research and adult stem cell research in the MSM.
