"Science is a gift of God to all of us and science has taken us to a place that is biblical in its power to cure... And that is embryonic stem cell research." Speaker Pelosi

 

 

"The embryo is embryonic human life and we would not favour anything that kills human life." Dr. James Dobson

Introduction

 

 

Stem Cell research has been catapulted into the middle of numerous national debates, as nations such as our own, struggle with the advent of several breakthroughs with Human Stem Cells

 

Most Individuals and Scientists have a positive disposition to the research itself. Opinions on this debate follow the source of the Stem Cells. On one side of the spectrum are those who feel that destroying an embryo is comparable to murder, despite that the research it promotes may help people with serious illnesses. On the other side of the spectrum are those who reason that, rather than a person, and embryo is the same as any other group of cells, and open to scientific research. 

Choice of Topic

 

 

I have selected this topic as I believe that it is imperative that the general population - who will certainly be affected by the outcome of the Embryonic Stem Cell debate, be exposed to the information that will play a crucial role in scientific and medical developments in years to come.

 

I would like to present them with an unbiased evaluating source that can both direct enthusiasm for the topic, as well as offer them knowledge of the invaluable scientific breakthroughs that will certainly proceed the acceptance and legality of Embryonic Stem Cell research.  The ethical considerations of our estranged hands in the cradle of life are an equally distinct right of moral judgement on their behalf.

 

A well designed, balanced and maintained faucet to spill forth both sides of the debate would open up such information to the research minded individual who happens to stumble upon my website. I chose to research and evaluate articles on Embryonic Stem Cell research so that I may loosen a tightening tap.
