The bill would ban human cloning and any attempts at human cloning for both reproductive purposes and medical research. Also forbidden is the importing of cloned embryos or products made from them.
We have a lot to gain through furthering stem cell research but medical breakthroughs should be fundamentally about saving not destroying human life. Therefore I support stem cell research that does not destroy the embryo.
Today it is research with human embryonic stem cells and attempts to prepare cloned stem cells for research and medical therapies that are being disavowed as being ethically unacceptable.
To date embryonic stem cell research has not produced a single medical treatment where ethical adult stem cell research has produced some 67 medical miracles.
Embryonic stem cell research is legal in America and nothing in the administration's current policy affects that legality 400 lines are currently being used to conduct embryonic stem cell research both in the private sector and by the Federal Government.
The first misconception is that embryonic stem cell research is not legal. The fact is embryonic stem cell research is completely legal. Research on embryonic stem cells has taken place for years.
Sadly embryonic stem cell research is completely legal in this country and has been going on at universities and research facilities for years.
This was our last stop. This was it. We had those two embryos that we had banked prior to learning about the breast cancer and with the medicine she was on this was our last effort. The prayers were answered.
The paradox is really the pathos of intellectual life and just as only great souls are exposed to passions it is only the great thinker who is exposed to what I call paradoxes which are nothing else than grandiose thoughts in embryo.
Every person is a God in embryo. Its only desire is to be born.
Now an embryo may seem like some scientific or laboratory term but in fact the embryo contains the unique information that defines a person. All you add is food and climate control and some time and the embryo becomes you or me.
Cut your morning devotions into your personal grooming. You would not go out to work with a dirty face. Why start the day with the face of your soul unwashed?
