Well, Mr. Bush has regrettably afforded us an example. Despite the pleas of the American people who see hope in stem cell research, he vetoes for the first time in his presidency. Why?

Soley for religious reasons. The same reasons that are used in protest of abortion.

All arguments against stem cell research originate from the argument that once the egg is fertilized, it has a soul. But many do not agree with this. Some cultures think that infants need to live for a while before it's considered a person, before their version of God assigns a soul to the child. This certainly doesn't fall in line with their beliefs.

Since Atheists don't even believe that the soul exists, they of course are going to be upset by the veto because it's based on a concept of which there is no empirical proof.

Religion has imposed its will upon unwilling participants.

This is evil.

Anyway, here's my question:
Are there any non-religious reasons to deny stem cell research?

gonna to try to explain this as well as I can. Its a relationship issue. I dated a guy from ages 14-17. We were madly in love. Then he moved to another state and never made contact with me for months I was crushed, and would have waited for him to come back if he asked me to, but he didnt. So I moved on and met the man who is now my husband. I love him so much, hes my soulmate and I know my ex was wrong for me. My ex is ADHD, and has self-esteem and drug issues. I know my life would never have worked with him When I had been dating "frank" my husband, my ex came back and tried to win me over again. He used my emotions against me. And yeah, I missed him, but I knew we couldnt be together. But why do I still think about him? I have vague dreams about him and am constantly tempted to call. He pops into my head at least once a day. I dont fantasize about being with him, but I just really want to talk to him. Is this the "you never get over your first love" thing? Personal experiences?

Been working for many years, doing the right things to stay on the right track. No matter what you do it seems the directions in reaching your goals is even much farther than you expected. Getting tired of being a hardworker or working hard?????

I have an old bed in my basement, across the basement from a living room set. Anyways, when my grandson came over, there's an 8-year-old girl named Becky who comes over to play. So, they went downstairs to play "House". When I came down to tell them dinner was ready, I saw both of them in the same bed, kinda close, too. Is that natural, and what should I do?

Let's say that you and 2 other people are the last 3 humans alive. The problem is you and 1 person are both guys,and the other is a scientist with no genetalia. If it were possible to have a sex change and you were able to get pregnant, would you do it to save humankind from extinction?

It's all about timing and refining. What's this?

"...duress is a unique defence in that it is so much more likely than any other to depend on assertions which are peculiarly difficult for the prosecution to investigate or subsequently to disprove." from English Law.

I noticed today that my cats whiskers are broken. They didn'd fall out. And it's weird because it is only on the right side on the eyebrow area whiskers and no place else. Do you think something happened to do that? The cat is really old. It's 18 years old.

I know it seems a dumb question on the face of it, but think about it and explore the drivers behind your gut reaction. Equally, it doesn't have to be a positive reaction.
