You are against using embryonic stem cells on moral grounds. In the future, however, a family member develops a terrible disease for which there is now a new cure derived directly from the research on and use of these stem cells.

Question: Would you allow your family member or yourself to take the cure or refuse it?

Start thinking about it now.

Well using your terms, there is a cure so I’d take it in a hearbeat. I may be against ESCR but I’m not stupid. I just doubt that this would ever happen. I’m mostly against taxpayer money for ESCR, if it’s so promising then some private companies would pay for the research and profit.
