Stem cell research? Should it be done?

i'm not as knowledgeable on this topic as i would like to be, but from what i understand, if the cells can come from a source that would have them otherwise being wasted, then yes, i am all for it.

i'd love to hear from those that are against it. not tryign to start trouble, just interested in learning more. is the idea that the cells are living organisms and therefore deserve to not be used for testing?

A world of misery could be wiped away if we took advantage of this amazing breakthrough. Diabetes, spinal cord injuries, the rejection by the body of transplanted organs, and many other afflictions stand a good chance of being eradicated. I'm not super knowledgeable on the topic but from the reading I have done it seems like another case of science and progress being stifled by religious kookery. The cells that are being used are like unmolded clay, they aren't cells of organs, they are not human...I give up.
