    WC, where do you get the idea that people will start having babies in order to perform research on embryonic stem cells?

    Are people going to have babies to then 'donate' them to this? I've read of no program advocating this.

    Embryonic stem cells are harvested from fetuses/babies that would be terminated anyways. If you know of some program that does otherwise, I would love to read about it.

    Embryonic stem cells aren't even needed now.

    A scientist in Japan has found a way to take normal cells back to the pluepotent stage. It is epic, uncontrovercial, and i'm surprised not that many people know about it.

    It's about the politics, sook.

    Liberals have never let science stand in the way of making political hay out of a policy they deem wrong-minded.

    Where did I say that?

    Where did you learn reading comprehension? Must have been a liberal indoctrination center.

    Please, what are my words that prompted such a misunderstanding?

    As far as I can fugure, you are basing this on the following statement:
    The problem with promoting Embryonic Stem Cell research, is then you create a market of creating life for the sole purpose of experimenting on it and killing it!
    I never said anything about having babies. I said life. Now, when you create a market for embryos, what happens is that now there is a market to pay women to harvest eggs, and fertilize them Creating life for the sole purpose of destroying and experimenting on it.

    Sorry, I'm not sick, evil, and twisted like you lib s.

    Yep. Proven ways, yet the lib s want to destroy life.

    I wonder which of their elitist friend stand to gain from this taxpayer dollars?

    It was never prohibited. It was prohibited to use fedeeral funding for research. Embryonic stem cell research has been going on as well as other stem cell research. An adult makes stem cells, in the nasal area, well into their 40's and some even later and there have been cases of people growing damaged heart tissue with their own stem cells. But if anyone thinks GW's ban on federal funding stopped it, you'd be wrong.
