Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / May 2005ot ot ot OT OT OT (Did I say OT?)
Just to show how pathetic and polluted the American populace is.... (at least the 'puter literate populace).... Here is the latest search ranking on the net..... (WARNING! Reading this will lower your IQ. ...<Can you spell IQ?>...) 1.. Bill Clinton 2.. Oliver Stone 3.. Marine murder charges 4.. Great-grandma gives birth 5.. Angelina Jolie 6.. American Idol winner 7.. Paris Hilton ad 8.. Michael Jackson trial 9.. Beer tax 10.. Stem cell research I don't see the need to go to Stem cell research.No cures there, yet. In a couple of decades, those who need the cures developed through this will just go off to Japan, Korea, France etc.and be fixed up, when possible. I expect that the off-spring of those now against it will even take advantage of the work of foreigners. Much ado about nothing. - About as pointless as embargos are, in realiy. KDH The potential of stem cell research is mind boggling. As I understand it stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the potential of turning into any type of cell the body needs. The debate in this country is whither the federal government should fund research on stem cells from aborted fetuses. As this (obviously) requires the fetus to be aborted before experiments can be performed on it many of us feel this is a really bad idea and that the federal government should not be supporting it. That doesn't mean that the feds can't do research on stem cells from adults (and there are some very good results coming from that), or that companies can't do the research on the fetal cells. Actually seeing stem cells on that list is a good thing, it means that people are hearing the debate and wanting to find out more.

That's what the bill about to be vetoed would allow, now the extra embryos are discarded, some 400,000 year. Even many of the pro life folks think that it's better to use a embryo for stem cell research than to discard it. The Koreans are way ahead of us already, they have harvested stem cells that are a genetic match for the patient. > The potential of stem cell research is mind boggling.

[quoted text clipped - 36 lines] >>> >>> KDH I think you're being a little disingenuous here: stem cells are in embryos and in adults, but not in aborted fetuses???!! Come on, now! Some of us are just cynical enough to realize that abortion is big business, and businesses would prefer to sell their waste to the government instead of paying to have it disposed of, not to mention the rationalization for more abortions we can see coming: "Besides, I'm doing this for the advancement of medical science!" Stem cells are in a lot of places, but we were talking about recent stem cell research which uses embryonic stem cells and has nothing to do with abortion. The cells do come from fertility clinics which I'll admit is big business. Adult stem cells from fetuses or the umbilical cord have a much more limited usefulness. (i.e., not as universal a cell) The bill I mentioned only allows research on embryos that would otherwise be discarded. What's pro life about refuing to use cells that wil be discarded to save a living human being ? > I think you're being a little disingenuous here: stem cells are in > embryos and in adults, but not in aborted fetuses???!!
