I don't think that there's ever been a suggestion, in all of the heated debates that we've had on abortion, that the procedure should be taken lightly. It's not. I don't think it's a birth control solution, I'm one of those who thinks that if it's a case of a fetus not surviving once born, or the mother's life will end by giving birth, then it's an option.
Not for "oops, I'm preggers again". Embryonic stem cells do not come from aborted fetuses (feti?). Some of them come from what would be discarded byproducts of in vitro fertilization. I'd rather see those byproducts used for medicinal purposes than dumped with the trash. I believe they can also be taken from human umbilical cord blood. If embryonic stem cells can help my father's Altzheimers, my wife and I will produce the needed by products ourselves if need be. -- Scott Stewart ColdFusion Developer SSTWebworks 4405 Oakshyre Way Raleigh, NC. 27616 (703) 220-2835 http://www.sstwebworks.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/sstwebworks -----Original Message----- From: Jerry Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 07, 2007 4:33 PM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Skin stem cells used to mend spines of rats So said Dr Mangele.
