No It's not the Berlin Wall so be quiet.
![]() Not long ago we all remember President Bush restricting stem cell research allying himself with religious grups (like this is the first time) and now Nancy Reagan and her sons wants Bush to tear down his proposition so there could be a cure for deseases like alzheimers and such. But still Bush denies this and still taking sides with the religious groups. Some republicans say that he should comply and change his mind, Democrats have always been in favor of this so I guess that is not new with the exception of a few of course. Is Bush realy doing the right thing? There is a lot that can be done with that research and I mean a lot and yet Bush still doesn't want to do it. Is he helping humanity this way? Should this be alowed? My great grandmother passed away this thursday and she had alzheimers like Bush and es I agree with stem cell research. Well kids discuss ![]() |

Ironicly here in Canada, thats one of our hot button issues here as well (thoguh not the biggest) with faderal election coming up. However odds of 2 of the 3 major parties here are in favor for stem cell rescarch, and technicliy theres no direct law agaisnt it here. (are a few loophole discrapcies thoguh but are soon to change. Mind you there are the fair amount of nay sayers here as well with this too. but it seems more are in favor for it. One of my friends (who passed away last year) was parayzed playing basketball. could have had the chance to walk again. if the stem cell reacsearch wasn't limited.. (since he still could move his sholders evn though the break was above his neck, so the nerve dammage wasn't complely severed. I for one am in favor for this rescarch. Too many people could lose out on this if they didin't have it, and that beyond unfair.

As long as abortions are still legal, go for it.
The only part of abortions I really have a problem with is the infantacide known as "Late Term," or "Partial Birth" abortions. In which birth is induced and a spike is driven through the infants head, killing it almost instantly. |

My stance on Abortion: It should only be legal if: 1.) It threatens the mother's life. 2.) It is a "rape" pregnancy. 3.) If (before birth) the child is nor going to lead a normal life. Such as deformatities or retardedness. Abortion because some teenaged rich slut couldn't say no to alcohol and drugs and got knocked up is not a valid reason.

I agree with the stance that if abortion is legal then stem cell research should be as well. Lets atleast give these lives a chance to help out another one.
On the abortion issue: I don't have a big problem with it, however I would NEVER want to abort my child. My only real problem with it is when it is used as a way to cover up a "mistake." A very close friend got his girlfriend pregnant and they got an abortion. To this day he regrets it...even though his relationship with the girl is not good. |
