OK. I'm going to show you exactly what's wrong with that statement and others like it.Originally Posted by lordblazer
WEll as long as the people remain stupid.They will always be to pro life.
I'm for life but I'm also for choice and also.I think that stem cell research will be very beneficial.
.What people refuse to realize is that the [embryos] {random ethnic group} from which they get the ESCs {Body Parts} will eventually die, anyway. These are embryos{random ethnic group} without families and lives. The life of a person with people who care about them takes precedence over a cell that would die within a matter of days. Many people also refuse to see the possibilities of stem cell research and its benefits. Not only is it a cure for many diseases, it is a potential cure for cancer and HIV and AIDS
The problem is that the only reason that we are considering ESC and not other versions of the same thing (on say the gitmo prisoners), is that we've assigned humans who haven't yet passed through the birth canal as something less than other people. Something that would never be accepted on any other basis. We wouldn't even concider doing research that we knew would harm a person to any other group. You wouldn't look at a kid with a disability and say "gee, lets take out her liver, it could save a life", nor would you say that about an ethnic minority, as in "gee, that Jew/Muslim/Black/Mexican is going to die anyway, lets kill him for research". Life is just as fatal to all of us. All of us are going to die. That doesn't give me the right to my neighbor's life.
And embryos are human. At least until you can point me to a news article in which a pregnant woman gives birth to another animal.
