Dawn of a new Dark Age?


OK... another serious post. I was watching the news last night - something that I try to avoid - and "THE" topic on all of the stations was stem cell research. There were both proponents and opponents voicing their opinions. I am not much of a scholar of history, but I do know that the (original) Dark Ages was brought about by "The Church" banning all scientific discussion as "heresy" Most medical advances were lost and civilization basically had to start over in that department. It seems that we may be at the beginning of the same type of thought that brought about the Dark Ages. "W" seems to think that if stem cell research goes against his personal beliefs that it must be banned. The thought that religious belief should become law seems to be quite common. I probably would not have been agitated enough to write about it, but "W" had the balls to say (in defending his arguement against stem cell research) "I will not allocate public funds to the taking of life." I wish he had thought of that before we went to Iraq.

difficult one,but as the reasearch from it will save and improve life for so many ,why not.

I'm against abortion for me,but i believe for others there should be a choice but not as birth control which some use it for,accidents do happen,and as we choose to give our bodies to science after our deaths,why not use the poor aborted babies for research,

Thats what i think if i've understood the topic so far

Papy.. same idea, except the embryos are not taken from a woman's body after they are fertilized. Are in vitro.
