I think this is a great discussion, and I find it interesting that so many people in our situation are sided with Bush on this one. I should note too that I had a lengthy discussion over emails with some of my friends throughout the day yesterday, and this thread is going great as well.
Debate and arguing over ideas is what our country is based upon, so even if the govt. didn't do what we all wanted them to do, they did spark a lot of discussions as I'm sure others across the country like us are having--that in itself is a good thing. -Terry (I've been quiet on the board for too long) On 7/21/06, Melissa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I have to agree also. I can't see taking a life to help me improve my condition. I think that Bush made the right decision. I do believe that there are so many other options out there that can help us. They don't need to be focusing on just this one issue. ----- Original Message ----- From: grace53a To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [email protected] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 12:48 AM Subject: Re: [TMIC] Study shows spinal cord regeneration Hello Barbara, I too am proud of Bush at this moment, and yes, I agree with Jim's most eloquent post. Considering the nature of my disease, my prognosis, and the likely outcome, it may come as a surprise to some---yet, it is, and has always been a deep conviction of mine, that embryos should not be used whenever so many other viable methods of harvesting stem cells are available.
