What are your thoughts on it? I'll post up my beliefs at a later date, I just want to see what everybody else thinks.

I dont have a problem with it, cuz they use aborted fetuses yes? And plus, it goes to disease cures, etc.

Well are you talking about stem cells in fetus' or the stem cells that are found in colonies in all human beings?

In aborted fetus's. And stuff.

Well then...

It's fucking stupid because there are colonies of stem cells in all human beings found somewhere in your gut (about 1 million) and somewhere in the back of your neck, although they haven't found the exact spot where they are located in the neck, it's still even more rich in cells then the colony in your gut. People just wanna talk about the stem cells in fetuses to raise controversy and awareness about abortion.

Word.

Hmm, cant say that i knew that. theres gotta be some relevance and importance of the ones in aborted fetuses, i have a hard time believing thats the only reason they talk about them.

stem cell research is completely different with aborted fetuses, when a child is born, theres only like a 2% difference in dna(thats not exact, but close), so stem research with aborted fetuses can also help in the study of communicable diseases, the question of whats moral and whats not comes in when the idea of people selling there unborn child for the sake of research...thats the only problem people generally face with this issue....

personally this is what i think, i think abortion is wrong, but should be legal..because i believe in choice, it's what our country was supposed to be built on, anyways, i think stem cell research with aborted babies is fine, as long as theres no business. If science wants to take an aborted child, that would have been aborted without stem cell research in mind, i don't see a problem..however, it would be hard to impossible to regulate peoples intentions when getting an abortion, and being how is the government has ultimate power, theres no way we could be sure it was being regulated, regardless of what we were told.

Well, the doctors were basically thinking they should use the fetuses for something uselful, and they went with stem cells. Most of the science world knows about stem cells can be found elsewhere but it's being blown out of proportion because abortion is such a touchy subject.

Catch my drift?

Stem Cells are probably the answer to a lot of diseases that degenerate the body i.e huntingtons, parkinsons because they have the ability to form into anything the body requires...i personally can't believe that religious groups are in upheave about this and the government is listening to them...it's fuckin stupid imo

stem cell research needs more investment into it...

if people choose to have an abortion...then why can't the fetus be used in stem cell research?...i do in a way sympathise and understand why people are angry about unborn children being used...but at the end of the day, they aren't feeling anything and potentially they are being used for the greater good of science...

that's jus my opinion i think stem cell research should be looked in to more

i think 99% of the world agrees with you on this..and so do I...

the question of morality comes in...when people could donate there unborn child to science, or sell it to science..thats when it's not "moral"

this is my opinion

donating fetuses should be like a donor card...all you gotta do is tick a box...selling a fetus is wrong but it's only happening because activist groups disaprove of stem cell research altogether...forcing people to do this

i don't see why because a small (well large scale but not a majority) amount of people who kick up a fuss about stem cell research result in it being restricted the way it's being now...hence the rest of the world suffering...

i mean think about it you got a family member who's dying of huntingtons...wouldn't YOU want stem cell research to be enhanced so that scientists can develop their research to create NEW brain & muscle cells for these patients so they'll never have to worry about becoming vegetibles?

if u talking about aborted babys bein researched then i say only if the baby wasnt gonna live or be in good condition in the 1st place if u just take a perfect baby that coulda been a perfect human being then i say fuck no thats majorly wrong...and my thoughts on abortion is that it should only be legal if its gonna be deformed and suffer through life or if the babys a rape baby but yet again who the hell can really tell if its a rape baby or if its just something the girl said ta get it aborted...

I think a lot of the controversy with stem cell research comes from people thinking that if it's regulated, people will use it as a cop out and say that they want to abort their baby for the greater good of science.. when they may just flat out not want to take care of the kid.
