Haha, great question! This would be hard to answer for the reason: I believe their was no embryonic stem cell research in the Bible days.

Of course there is nowhere in the Bible that mentions embryonic stem cells, but it does mention something about "thou shall not murder."
Even pro-abortion scientists and doctors will say that killing an ebryo or fetus is ending a human life. Their argument is that an embryo's life is not valid. If you kill a cockroach - it's not "murder", per say, because the life does not have value. However, it does say in the Bible that "God knew us BEFORE we were born." So, if God thinks we have value before birth - it's logical to conclude that embryonic stem cell research would not be permitted according to the Bible.

Obviously, stem cell research is not mentioned in the Bible. Some people say conception/life occurs at fertilization, others say it occurs when the embryo enters the womb and blood is present (blood is life). Bottom line, the Bible says that only God may create and take life. I don't know much about stem cell research, but I assume life would be regularly created and taken away in a petri dish.

What the heck is embryonic stem cell research? Hello? 99% of the people on this answers site have no life (including myself) How the heck should we know what that big word means?

there is no where in the bible where embryonic stem cell research is mentioned, but some religous freak will say there is and name some random verse like dick verse 12 chapter 5

Yeah it was actually the 11th commandment, "Thou shalt not engage in embryonic stem cell research!!" but it was too long, so Moses chiseled it out.

Nope, not in the Bible. He knows more about it than anyone on the earth today though. All of these researches are researches on how things work, what makes them work, etc. Things that already exist, things that God made. Nothing wrong with wanting to know that.

The word of God defines the beginning of life differently that the world and modern science often does....and so that is the area of conflict with respect to emryonic stem cell research....it is destroying "life" at man's discretion
It is written in the Psalms for instance, “…you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb…When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.”

God is Pro-life, so that's an easy question. God favors embryonic stem cell research. I know, because I speak for God.

Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life"
If Jesus is Life, then what happens when we destroy His creation?
Adult stems cell does not kill a creation of Christ, and is more effective to treat diseases! Scientifically proven.
