Second of all, an embryo is just a ball of cells, no brain, no heart, no organs whatsoever! Third, what about Adult Stem Cells? |

Stem cell research can do so much, we need it. It's not killing a person. Do you have any idea how many fertilized embryos are destroyed by fertility clinics if the "owners" decide they no longer need them?

There are already multiple threads in biology on this topic.

You should be more specific with your question: I suspect you are asking only whether or not we support the use of embryonic stem cells in research.

I don't have a question, I was just intending this thread to be a discussion on morals, cultures, relation to religion, what PF users think, etc.
I realize that I left it so open ended that readers were confused where to go with it. Most of you seem to think that an embryo at the stage that its stem cells are to be taken out, is not alive yet therefore you are not killing it. Correct? What about adult stem cells? How usable are these? How quickly are systems to isolate them developing? I read a few months ago some researchers developed a blood filtering system. |

I think we should definitely go through with stem cell research.

As long as the extraction isn't killing or has a chance of harming the embryo, I'm okay with it. Killing a baby to save an old man is wrong, plain and simple.
