Hey...what do you all think about people using aborted fetuses for stem cell research?

I think that it is better to try and use them towards a good cause then to throw them away, even though they never got to live at least they wern't a waste...I think it should be like a way to help people who can't afford abortions, That if they agree to let their fetus be used for research rather then be thrown in a dumpster then they could get like a discount...I know that would cause more abortions but we aren't argueing about abortion in this topic tongue.gif But in some cases I believe abortion is okay...like if the woman was raped...
DISCUSS!

^ it may be complicated, but from the tests we already have done, it seems to do the job quite well...

One of the problems may be that researchers may buy them for research, so people have abortions for the money.
the double research thing sounds weird. wacko.gif

This is why stem cell research is very complicated...
Stem Cell Research can bring cures to human illness, and even saves lives, but what you've neglected in this topic was what Stem Cell Research brings. One example of negativeness it brings, is cloning. Cloning is wrong in so many ways, its a technology and technique developed from stem cell research...genetically modified food/animals also falls under this topic.
What I guess I am trying to say, even though stem cell research can bring about amazing things, it has its negative impacts...and as a society I do not think we are ready to embrace the responsibility of those negative things. The last thing we need is more problems, and as many problems this fixes it also creates problems, possibly even creating more problems than it fixed.
