Care to explain that? Death is certain for everyone. Stem cells from human embryos may have the potential to make life better for some but they won't make anyone immortal
Sure, and thank you for the opportunity.  I'm only thinking back just 50 years and those who were faced with a most uncertain life due to a neuro or nerve injury.  Many of those, died shortly after being injured, from accidents.  Babies born with Spina Bifida just didn't survive after a couple years.  Same could be said for those born with Spinal Muscular Antrophy.
Medicine, Science and Chemistry together have responsible for saving lives and promoting
life further then most expected. I still remember when a young doctor in California tried using electric stim on his clients and was look'd upon as Dr Frankenstein.  Today, Dr. Petrofsky's
treatments and procedures are considered standard protocol.
Perhap those secrect of life are being revealed only as quickly as we can grasp the concepts.
Its sad to think that our government is establishing the standards for morality.  Its a shame that we have to live by the morality of one person, while others go to bed this very evening hungry, sick and poor.  It almost happened today,except for the stroke of a pen that might have helped someone's dream.  It happened because a single person felt it was the moral thing to do.
Hitler, in his own way also felt that he was only doing the moral thing.  It took several nations to prove him wrong.
Let's pray that not one of us should die before our time because of a stroke of a pen.  Granted, we won't all live forever, but we all deserve a fair chance.....
 
Thanks again for the opportunity, Jim
