Because I'm not an ignorant fool, so I realize that my spinal nerves don't have as much potential to help as this, and I also realize that there's no need for anyone to be killed to allow this research to proceed.
Who are we to classify which human lives are ok to sacrifice?
Please tell me, since you seem so intent on sacrificing someone even when there's no need.
There is no need to sacrifice human life when other avenues are not only available, but more productive.
I am not intent on anyone being sacrificed. If you have read my posts, you would see that I am for advancement of research that does not depend on the destruction of human life.
Also, how do you know that your spinal nerves don’t have potential to help? Of course I was being sarcastic in asking that.
My point was that there are ethical lines to what type of research should be done. There is no public outcry for research that would require the destruction of already born humans because it is obviously wrong.
If we advance embryonic stem cell research, it is only going to increase the demand for more embryos. There are also many more problems that need to be resolved using embryonic cells with rejection from the patients immune system. This problem does not exist when adult stem cell from the patient are used.
It makes more sense ethically, scientifically and financially to develop adult stem cells instead of embryonic.
