not if they put the cancer (or whatever) in the world on purpose!
maybe to stop over-population?

i dont think that actuly happend, and i dont think the world will get over poulated as people die everyday of old age etc and new people are born every day, one day or later your going to die and if it's because of cancer or what ever i think that you should be able to be cured of it because like i said you'll die someday of something just hopefully not soemthing horrible like cancer.

what the hell would a C average student know about stem cell research ??? this is a man who if his brains were dynamite he wouldnt have enough to blow his freakin nose

i think there are more practical ways of lowering over population eg better contraception schemes in the third world, than ignoring terminal illnesses because "Its good that people die like or else there will be too many of us or whatever"

Howdy NextGen,

You should have added a third option to your poll,stem-cell research,that does not destroy life..as in the use of umbilical-cord blood and adult stem-cells..I had to vote no. Like Bush said"If it requires the destruction of life..then I will veto it."

What we're really talking about,is the availability of Federal monies for research..in other words,using the tax-payer dollars,many of whom,are Christians and don't want their taxes used to support the destruction of life. Private companies,can use their own money,for the destruction of life..without the support of Federal grants.

The democrappers are using this issue to make Christians look bad,when it's really just Christians objecting to the use of their tax dollars to support the destruction of life. Private companies and individuals,can invest as much of their own money as they want..and not expect to use my tax dollars for their insidious research.

Have a good one ...

Christians not wanting to pay for the destruction of life....waiving their boys off to kill some a-rabs :mad:

the hypocrisy of some far right christians beggars belief....

Howdy easyg,

Is it any wonder,that a liberal-mindset,cannot comprehend the need to defend Freedom and Liberty against those who desire to crush it ?

what about all the other conflicts? Serbia, Albania, and countless others. Where was the USA then, when innocents were being killed for no reason by dictators, cities being bombed to the ground indescriminately. The USA wasnt there bacuase there was nothing in it for the president to help these people. Now im not saying that Saddam Hussein wasnt a terrible person, but i am saying that if bush is so keen on defending Freedom and Liberty against those who desire to crush it, then why not defend all the countries instead of just the ones that will get him financial gain?

Not all stem cells come from unborn babies. Everyone has stem cells in their bodies. People with bone cancer use stem cells from family members who match up [their own stem cells are corrupt from the cancer]. Stem cells can grow into any cell the body needs. Eventually , stem cells will be able to repair any body part, if research is allowed to continue. If Bush is against anything that destroys life, how can he send troops into battle, that destroys life, or rather he does. So, does that mean he's against himself ? Nope, I think if it is a government run research, then everyone is able to use it, but if its privatly run research then it goes to the rich or those that can afford it.
peace

Howdy and good mornin,Heart:)

Yeah..the issue is whether or not,our money(tax dollars),should be used to support research with Federal grants...I don't want my taxes to pay for abortion clinics or 'art',that uses feces to make a slur against Christianity. I support the use of stem-cells,as long as embryos aren't being harvested and destroyed.

I hope that you and your's,are doin well:)

Hav a good one !
