The following information was found in an article entitled, “Stem-cell firms surge as Obama fuels funding hopes” by Esha Dey
The article states, “Stem cells are the body’s master cells, giving rise to tissues, organs and blood. Scientists hope to harness their power to transform medicine, to repair devastating injuries, replace the brain cells lost in Parkinson’s disease, cure juvenile diabetes, or treat diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
But research related to embryonic stem cells has been under political scrutiny for a long time due to ethical issues, as it involves the destruction or manipulation of human embryos.
Republican President George W. Bush had vetoed bills to expand federally funded embryonic stem-cell research, and showed a preference toward adult stem-cell research that is considered more ethical by many conservative voters.”
What are your thoughts on this? In my mind, this is creating humans to kill them for experiments.
You may ask yourself, “When DOES life begin?” According to the National Right to Life site (http://www.nrlc.org/abortion/wdlb/wdlb.html), “The life of a baby begins 
long before he or she is born. A new individual human being begins at fertilization, when the sperm and ovum meet to form a single cell. If the baby’s life is not interrupted, he or she will someday become an adult man or woman. Worldwide, millions of unborn babies are killed each year. In the United States over 40 million unborn babies have been killed in the 29 years since abortion was legalized and more than 1.3 million are killed each year.” I believe that number has increased to 50 million at this point.
Really, this is no different than abortion in my eyes. A human life is created, then murdered for the sake of “research” (or convenience).
Oh Father, please change Obama’s heart! Please reveal Yourself to him and fill him full of awe and FEAR of You and Your holiness. Please hear the cries of Your children. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
