They are mixing apples and oranges. Leukemia treatments are a result of standard drug and radiation research and bone marrow transplants are simply blood transfusions.

The abortion people like to claim that bone marrow transplants are stem cells. Yeah, but with a difference, folks, the donor doesn't die.

So, we aren't against stem cells, we are against taking them away from someone and causing a death. If you can take them and not have a death or disability result, then you have a donor.

Ewww...Specter just said something like, "we won't create a child." I cannot believe this debate is even happening.

The science is so shaky and like you said, there are adult stem cells that show more promise without the eugenics and moral issues involved.
