Stem cell research commercial makes Bush look dumb

apparently these scientists dont know what sanctity means. youre not supposed to take a fertilized egg which is outside of a womans body and discard, put it back into a womans body, or make stem cells out of the embryo. if scientists have a problem with discarding fertilized eggs,if human life is so important to them why fertilize an egg outside of a females body with a needle and then decide that they value human life too much to discard them,i totally disagree with this commercial and think for once president bush is correct about something. it doesnt take a genius to see that this is wrong

First off, have you ever been to a snake oil funeral? They are a blast.
Second off, the purpose of the scientific research is to determine definitively what we can and can't do with them [embryonic stem cells]. I would like to see this scientific research you are talking about which has proven emphirically that no matter what we do with the embryonic stem cells that they will cause cancer.
Third off, the point of the commercial was to highlight the wasteful nature brought about by the current regulations on fertility clinics. Scientists want to play with the embryos either through some extreme form of paedophilia or because they believe that some research they do will help more people than embryos they destroy. I'll agree with you that the possibility of embryonic stem cell research yeilding useful results is slim. Almost as slim as skin cancer being cured by me urinating on somebody. But the possibility still exists, and that is what they are banking on. Its also why there has been a rash of cancer patients complaining about being urinating on in my area.

Anyway, nice chatting with you, have a nice day.

Shows the ignorance of the pro-stem cell group who have been too easily sold a bunch of baloney about the 'promise' of stem cell research.

Wow. Just...wow. Well done.
