The False Controversy of Stem Cell Research. Kinsley:
In fact, thinking it through is a moral obligation, especially if you
are on the side of the argument that wants to stop or slow this
research.
It's not complicated. An embryo used in stem-cell research (and
fertility treatments) is three to five days past conception. It
consists of a few dozen cells that together are too small to be seen
without a microscope. It has no consciousness, no self-awareness, no
ability to feel love or pain. The smallest insect is far more human in
every respect except potential.

Reagan and Stem Cell Research
Reagan and Stem Cell Research
06/06/2004 05:36 PMI make it a practice to avoid political statements here, but I'm
compelled to quote from John Robb's
Weblog today:
"Tens of millions of people like
Ronald Reagan, continue to fight debilitating diseases like
Alzheimers, Parkinsons, and Diabetes. Stem cell research holds the
promise of a cure. Bush's fight against stem cell research (he has
even tried to ban it globally via the UN), sentences people like
Ronald Reagan to years of personal and familial trauma, disolution of
dignity, and eventually death. In a right and perfect world, Reagan's
death would be the trigger for a well funded push into stem cell
research to find a cure for these diseases.
Every day
my father fights the effects of Parkinson's, and I'm sickened by those
whose vague religious convictions deny the search for a cure. If
you're among these people, then you'd better be damn sure you're
following God's will rather than your own fear, because otherwise
you're condemning people I love to needless pain and suffering.

stem cell research: What the law does do, according to Jersey City
Assemblywoman Joan Quigley, is allow researchers - private or public -
to conduct experiments on stem cells derived from human embryos and to
replicate these for continuing research. Under the law, people
undergoing fertility treatments can donate unwanted embryos for
scientific research. The law also requires doctors to offer the option
to potential parents under fertility treatments.

Stem cell breakthrough in South Korea
Stem cell breakthrough in South Korea
06/05/2005 10:53 PMStem cell research is a controversial topic, at least when
embryonic stem cells are involved. This week, Science.Ars looks at
some developments in South Korean stem cell research.
I’m revisiting the topic again this week, following
the news of a breakthrough by scientists from Seoul National
University. Last year the group reported the creation (registration
required) of an human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line using somatic
cell nuclear transfer — in effect they replaced the nucleus in
donated oocytes (unfertilized egg cells) with that of a somatic
cell.
As is usual with this line of research, the development will raise
all sorts of ethical questions.
Science.Ars also reports on the discovery of a new species of
monkey, a positive development from the devastation of last December's
tsunami, and more.
