Why do the republitards want to stop stem cell research?
I dont get it. Think of all the diseases we could cure someday with this research. Diabetes, altzheimers, parkinsons, people who have spinal injuries.
South Korea comes out with a break through, why dont we work harder to try and advance this work? Why block this progress? |

Same reason they want to teach creationism in schools and not evolution; because Gawd doesn't like it

I know, my daughter has Juvenile Diabetes and Stem Cell Research is the key to curing it.
Bastard ultra right-wingers.

Curing diseases is ungodly.
Stem cell research, specifically the kind that comes from fetuses, is ungodly. The biggest concern as explained to a christian friend of mine works like this. We find out that Stem cells cures XXXXX diseases. Now there is a huge demand on the product. Where do we get the product? Well there are alternative sources of the product but for the most part its from the generation of cells from a line from fetuses. Its that whole right to life thing. So the major concern is that it would put an economic 'edge' on abortions and/or cloning. The idea of generating life, which they argue is at the moment of conception, for the purpose of farming it is wrong... as long as that life is human anyways. So they dont want to see the demand on the product to go up due to its nefarious source. |

I mean think about it.
God created everything. he Created aids and diabetes and cancer and herpes and.... He DIDNT create the cures for those yet. Therefore they must be godly. right? Quote:
I forget the exact details but it involved extracting tissue from one part of the body and putting it in another. :o it seemed relatively simple and is having some results. |

It seems to me that the democratic party claims to be the party of the poor and helpless. Untill they find the most helpless of all and want to farm humans to poke and prod them with metal sticks until they are dead.
Embryonic stem cell research is a very touchy subject subject in the field of science as well as religion. |

Pretty good article explaining a little more:
BY PETER J. CATALDO There are three myths in the politically charged controversy over stem cell research. One is that all such work involves only embryonic stem cell research. A second is that embryonic stem cell research is the only stem cell research that can aid the treatment of certain types of diseases, and that opposing this type of research will deny unique benefits to those in need. The third myth is that the Roman Catholic Church opposes all stem cell research. It is critically important for voters and policy makers to know and understand the facts on this issue. In Michigan, for example, legislation has been introduced that would amend an existing statute to allow for human cloning and embryonic stem cell research. The truth is that there are two types of stem cell research -- embryonic and adult -- and that the treatment needs of people afflicted with debilitating diseases may be met with adult stem cell research. The fact that there are two types of stem cell research and that there are significant differences between them is often lost in the rhetoric. Extracting stem cells from embryos to establish embryonic stem cell lines kills embryos. Embryonic stem cells have proven difficult to work with and have a propensity to form tumors in experiments. Despite continuing embryonic stem cell research, to date there are no clinical treatments with these cells. These facts are in contrast to the real success of adult stem cell research in which adult stem cells have been used to treat 56 different diseases. Adult stem cells are present in the body at any time following the embryonic stage of growth in the womb and throughout the remainder of an individual's life. Adult stem cells of newborns are also found in umbilical cord blood and the placenta. Neither the use of adult stem cells nor the establishment of adult stem cell lines involves the destruction of embryos or any disproportionate risk to the individual from whom the cells are taken. The human embryo is not, as the proponents of embryonic stem cell research assume, "a bundle of cells" or an "undifferentiated mass of cells." Rather, the human embryo is an actual, self-integrating, unified individual being, endowed with human nature and as such is the proper bearer of fundamental human rights. It is a potential newborn or adult, but as real a human individual as any other human. To extract its stem cells is to destroy directly an innocent human life and to sacrifice that life for medical research. Support for this activity places a purely instrumental value on these human individuals who are equal in dignity to any other human being. Another disturbing ethical concern in the debate is the denouncement that any opposition to embryonic stem cell research is "ideology, not science." What this means is that any position other than acceptance of embryonic stem cell research is necessarily biased and agenda-driven. This view (itself ideological) is disturbing not simply because it assumes there is an imperative to use all available technology, even at the expense of human life, but also because it sets up a false conflict between science and ethics. It is really saying that science should not be evaluated on independent moral grounds. However, because science -- medicine in particular -- exists to serve the human person, a balance can and must be achieved between the great promise of stem cell research and respect for human life. This is precisely what adult stem cell research accomplishes. The prospect of curing many debilitating conditions such as Parkinson's disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and paralysis -- or at least significantly lessening the suffering they cause -- through stem cell research and therapy has captured the ethical and political attention of the world. The fact that there is so much at stake in stem cell research makes the issue a defining one for America. It is important that we understand the whole story behind stem cell research, and as a result understand that to support adult stem cell research while opposing embryonic stem cell research is not ideological but ethically principled and fully consistent with the goals of science and the teaching of the Catholic Church. |

It isn't so much stem cell research they're against, its using the unborn when there are other methods that can be used, which there are.

in every thread you come in and post some 3000 word article. If you can't express yourself concisely and clearly, which you can't because you're a republitard, don't post at all.
Just say science and evolution are bad and against Gawd and be done with it. |

Yeah, but the "unborn" are merely a bunch of cells no bigger than a pinpoint before they are harvested. Come on, life for those who are suffering and ill, or "saving" a "life" the size of a pinhead. Cloning is the future. It is going to happen eventually. In fact, I want to clone myself. |

------------ so I guess my splooge is half of an actual human being. Therefore every time I cast my seed upon the ground I'm committing millions of little murders and I'm cursed to burn in hell smelling brimstone. I CANNOT BELIEVE that people like you were able to seize power in this country. That is just so depressing and disappointing. I can't understand people who willingly and eagerly turn their back on the enlightenment and embrace dark age ideology. |

40,000 children die every day due to hunger. If the world were really more caring, they would educate people on condom use and prevent children from dying. Oh wait, the Pope is against contraception.... So, in the end, people reproduce like bunnies, the children can't eat, they suffer and die, and the mighty west does little to help. Meanwhile, people who are living suffer sometimes their ENTIRE LIVES to "prevent" the "deaths" of cells who are absolutely not suffering or self-aware. We will see human clones in our lifetime, I'm sure of it! |

I'm having a hard time understanding your logic. The US drug companies are evil becuase they are after money to compensate them for the medical research they do. The US administration is evil becuase they wont give more money to fund medical research. So basically, you want US companies to do more medical research. You dont want them to profit from their research by selling products to individuals. You want the government to pay the companies that do the research. You want the individual to pay more to the government. I'm sure you realize that beaucracy is a more efficent way of using each dollar than any type of responsiblity of profit through revenue. = false |

the problem can be solved very easily.
you integrate immigrationm into the problem. every female mexican that wants to cross the US border has to be impregnated and her child aborted and forced to give the fetus to the US for stem cell research before she can enter. PROBLEM FUCKING SOLVED!

Damn you are fucking stupid. Have you not been paying attention for the last 40 fucking years. sperm is not an embyo. NO wonder you wouldn't read the scientific article I posted, it was over your head. If you believe that life begins when the sperm exits the penis, the liberals will throw you out of their meetings and call you brainwashed. Just for your info: Liberals say that Life begins at birth. Liberals believe that birth control is the only option and includes a fancy named thing they call "reproductive rights". Thats another name for poking a metal stick through a childs head for the purpose of killing it. Conservatives say that life begins at conception. Conservatives believe in "reproductive responsibility". That arguement varies withing the repulican tent, but one thing agreed upon by all is that abstinence is the best policy for preventing pregnancy in minors. |

Why are right wingers against stem cell research?
Because talk radio or the church told them to be against it. If you haven't figured out why right wingers believe certain things, it's really easy. They believe that they are told to believe. Look at the sheep in this thread posting full articles from RushLimbaugh.com. You will not change the mind of most right wing sheep because they are just doing what they are told by their masters. ![]() |

FYI: Reproductive Rights is a term that denotes the right of a woman to control her own body. I agree with you though, you've convinced me.
Not only should women be forced to carry unwanted pregnancies to term, they shouldn't be allowed to vote, and rape shouldn't be a crime. We all know those bitches want it. |

I fully believe that the Government should regulate child birth as a whole. You need a license to drive, fly, or go boating, but not one for having a child? The process for adoption is pretty complicated, and it's apparently hard to get approved. How come any 16 year old, broke ass, no education, no father, no hope loser can bring a child into the world? Of course, some would say that's a radical Government who would enforce such a law, but in reality, if child birth was regulated I bet crime would drop, poverty would drop, etc etc etc. Of course, then you may have the problem of the overall population of your country would shrink rather than expand. Quantity or quality, hmm... |
