Stem Cell Research

Hey all,

I am currently taking a philosophy course and we have been assigned a debate assignment that is in regards to the morality of stem cell research. My group was given the task of being opposed to stem cell research. If anyone can give me any idea why people may be opposed to stem cell research that would be great. Thanks!

Sorry. I can't think of any logical arguments for you. At all.

(Unless you want to try to prove a 100-cell blastocyst is somehow more "alive" than a fruit fly.)

and here is a link to show you that fat cells are better than someone else's stem cells, because they are cheaper (they remove them from you, you are there anyway, ie no shipping cost), they have no arguments about "where did these stem cell come from?", and if you need more you get more right away (no waiting for other stem cell "donors").

Hi,
Your best bet for research is to use a search engine, such as http://www.google.com, and just simply type in "stem cell research", without quotes, and click on Search.
You will find so many links that one cannot read them all!!
Best of luck,
fredg
