WND Poll: Stem-Cell Research

Question : What’s your view on embryonic stem-cell research? /WorldNetDaily Poll

• An embryo is not the same thing as a baby - get over it!
• If the GOP fetus lovers hadn’t put so many roadblocks in the way, thousands of sufferers would already have benefited from this
• The real ethical crime is disposing of the byproducts of pregnancy termination that could be used to cure diseases
• The opposition comes from those who are healthy and have healthy children
• Research should be expanded with women being permitted to voluntarily contribute embryos for scientific research

• It offers limitless promise to those suffering debilitating diseases and trauma - it should receive major federal funding
• Only last month the Vatican said parents could “use a vaccine that was developed using cell lines of illicit origin” to guarantee their children’s health - how is this different?
• The potential benefits are so great nagging ethical concerns should be put aside for now
• As Star Trek’s Mr. Spock so eloquently said, “Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few”
• If taxpayers fund the research they should also share in the profit and patents that result
• With this economy, unproven, over-hyped junk science is the last thing the government should be funding
• I don’t care what promise it holds, it shouldn’t be funded with taxpayer dollars
• Like all areas of science it should be explored, but I’m concerned it hasn’t shown significant results so far
• There’s no significant potential with this research - it should be abandoned before taxpayers and shareholders are further ripped off
• Enough people have ethical concerns that we should be cautious
• Monkeying with human embryos is a sure path to brave new world eugenics
• It’s a short step between experimenting on embryos and humans already born
• We should concentrate on adult stem cells and leave embryonic cells alone
• Why this fascination with creating reasons to justify taking innocent human lives through abortion?
• Man has no right to play God by sacrificing human embryos for any reason
• It’s medical cannibalism
• Other
