Embryonic Stem Cell Research and What You Need to Know

An important piece on embryonic stem cell research titled, The Myths of the Stem Cell Debate by Steve Chapman is a must read. I know, I know, the very subject causes you to glaze over what with the constant banter which serves to muddy the water, and besides, it doesn't really concern you does it? Like abortion, murder, theft, child abuse, same sex marriage, and every other transgression against society, it does concern you and all of us who wish to live in a civil society.

The embryonic stem cell issue is a total misdirective. Embryonic stems cells have shown no effectiveness or promise in what the proponants purport! Adult stem cell research, on the other hand, which is completely in accord with President Bush and the Pro-Life Movement, show far more promise in the fight against debilitating diseases. Check out the link. Those on the embryonic side of the argument silently see this issue as a way to proliferate abortion and the potentiality of harvesting fetuses. The end result seems to be far less important than how it comes about. Think about that! The proponents of embryonic stem cell research, when all is said and done, seem to be more interested in seeing that more abortions take place than cures for which they are aborted! How horrifying is that?
