: Can you find anyone who has ever been cured of anything due to stem cell research? Do you think it is OK to kill an embryo (baby) for the embryo cells to fix an actor?
Nobody has been cured because its still in the research phase. Research is also known as studying, experimenting, having a theory & having the ability to do A+B to see if it equals C. THat's why they need more research. As to the embryo's thats why its important for ground rules to be set. There are how many embryo's sitting in freezer storage that will never be used, because the women who put them there either already conceived or have given up on conception. Those embryo's will be thrown away. Better to use them for research than just toss them.
