stem cell research is the cloning of humans, but the process is halted after a certain period of time to harvest the stem cells from the embryo some people consider this morally wrong and think that killing a partially grown human is a crime and that it shouldnt happen, but they just found a new way to get stem cells from the "water" a woman creates in her uterus and that the baby breathes while in the womb.

I can't think of any reason why it should be prevented. A lot of the experimentation is done on stem cells from unimplanted invitro fertilization cases, where the zygotes would otherwise be disposed of anyway. I cannot think of anyone who would not benefit from the research either. I am at risk for diabetes and heart disease; any day I could suffer from a spinal cord injury. If these and many more diseases/injuries could be cured or repaired, it would benefit an immense number of people.

there is a kind of stem cells (the best one) that can be recovered only from human embrions.
This bring to a highly ethical problem.
However is correct to stop completely research of stem cells ? if I have an idea for curing a terrible mortal disease will you let me research with stem cells ? At least some kind of them ? all ?

There are not any good reason for preventing stem cell research.

There is no reason to prevent stem cell research - unless you're a fundamental christian who doesn't understand science. Unfortunatly, we have one running the country.

Very few of us want to end Stem cell research.We just don't want tax-payers to foot the bill.Let the ones who will profit from it pay,Private Industry.

coz stem cell research involves the experimentation of embryos which is an immoral according to our morality since it is an act of murder of an unborn human being
