Know what
is happening with your tax dollars - Bad
News And Good News About Stem Cell
Research
First the
bad news: Listening to our local YNN Rochester news source, I was
totally disgusted to learn of three men getting embryonic stem cell
therapy from a place in India: Click Here
After listening I went to YNN's
website to learn more and found that New York taxes are paying women
for eggs. Right about this time, I wanted to toss my last meal, rip
my site off line, and give up on America. Just to think that our tax
dollars would be going to creating life, to steal would-be body
parts (embryonic stem cells), made me sick. Then came the good
news.
I read onto the next article, which interviewed a woman
from The University of Rochester, where research is being conducted.
And the woman said the following about the donated eggs:
...it's also important to note that women's eggs would
not be used for embryonic stem cell research. She
says the eggs would not be fertilized with sperm.
They'd instead be injected with DNA and mimic the
fertilization process. "I think some people are confusing
embryos with eggs. We are not talking about using
these eggs to create embryos to do research. The eggs themselves are
going to be the source of the stem cells that will be the research
subjects," said Greenlaw. Click Here
For now, it appears that
the article to the right, was told before the news source had the
whole story. Let's pray that the story never becomes the worse of
the two possibilities.
