Everyday most of us live our lives with out "great" pain. We go to work or school, come home, spend time with our families, and then repeat this the next day with little or no diversion from the path. Every so often though a person becomes stricken with an illness that uproots the whole foundation of a family. It has caused divorces, suicides, and even losing a job. What if though there was a way to stop all of this to give every person who suffers from a disease a chance at life again with out the problems that the disease gives them. Thats right i am talking about "Stem Cells". For whatever reason Conservatives "Nazi's" "Republicans" cant seem to figure it out that you dont need to clone a human, or ABORT a fetus, TO GET STEM CELLS!!!! The only arguement that a conservative, or nazi from now on in this article, can make against stem cells are:
1) I dont want any human beings being cloned (THEY DONT HAVE TO BE)
2) I think god gets angry everytime a fetus is aborted (THIS DOESNT HAVE TO HAPPEN EITHER)
Stem cells can be harvested from the umbilical cord, and the placenta (After birth), and used just like normal stem cells from an aborted fetus. It would allow many people who suffer from the disease Parkinsons
(Un-able to stop twitching or moving), and who may even be blind to see again. Why would someone not want to take this vital step forward to increase the life expectancy and quality for all fellow human beings. The only problem that a Nazi will face is if they get one of the diseases (There are many look it up) that can be cured with stem cells, and then they will WHINE like a small child that they wish they could get treated. When death is in front of your face, and he can take many shapes, then its when you want to live the most so that you can see your family and friends more, and finish all the things in life that you never really didnt get to do.
I agree humans should NOT be cloned. It would only cause trouble, and it would de-value human life. Not to mention the massive population boom that could follow. It would also lead to greater exploitation. For example a corporation could mass produce people to work for food and shelter, and no wages, how much cheaper would that be?!
In closing I would like to state that Nazi's restrict true scientific breakthroughs, and technological advancements, because they feel that the bible (Which is where their beliefs, and morals come from) is the end all statement on how politics should work. The church has no business in politics. If we look back in time you would see the Crusades, which was basicly a war against Islam to irradicate the religion, because the church felt it was not "Compatable" with Christianity. How did that ever turn out? Didnt the church just retreat?
Nazi's might argue that its getting involved with human life to much. Then what would be the cure for cancer, and the cure for other diseases that we have already discovered . Also what about the fiasco of a war where 100 Iraqi civilians die everyday? If that not getting involved in something that effects human life. So why is it so bad to let a human being live a better life, INSTEAD OF KILLING people on the other side of the world.
**NOTE** I know that not ALL Republicans are against stems cells, same with the Liberals. I know some of them are against it. Seriously though I am tired of people who know VERY LITTLE commenting on the subject because they know that a BABY COULD BE ABORTED. Take a look at the big picture!!!! Get educated.
***NOTE*** Please Dont refer to anything as Liberal, its Socialist as the true term. Thank You
