No, of coure you don't.
And, not that I don't have an answer, it is just that I don't think I have to give you one (Na-na-nanana )
But that comment really says it all, doesn't it?
You managed to try and answer just about everything else, so I wonder....
I do commend you, though, for what would obviously be your willingness to head for the nearest abortion clinic if your daughter was pregnant as a result of a rape, even though you don't care to admit it.
Assumptions without any facts? Again, I can see why you are so left wing, Pee.
Can't say as I blame you for not being willing to say so, though. If I had one set of rules for myself and another for everyone else, I wouldn't be so quick to admit it either.
Again, without my answer, all meaningless assumptions on your part. Though I have to commend you once again for spinning the issue - and trying to paint me in a hypocrtical light. You sure you aren't a politician?
But believe me; It's perfectly all right to feel one way about an issue, and then when actually confronted with it doing something different than what your beliefs tell you because of expediency.
I wouldn't do that because, after all,
I'm not like you, Pee.
You'll learn that when you get older and are faced with reality and the hard decisions of life.
Oh, right, you mean, like supporting the murder of babies and the ACLU's defense of terrorists?
That's some "reality" you've got there.
I think I'd need some of Patrick's drugs to get me there, though.
Meanwhile, enjoy your youth and idealism.
And you enjoy your senility and pathetic pathos for the liberal ideals that bear no functional solutions. Without Vietnam, you and those like you will still continue to be would-be intellectuals on a soapbox, instilling the same values in your children.

I am saying that even stem cells can develop into babies in right environment. Ofcourse hair, teeth etc that I gave examples of, are not stem cells. But do you think that destroying a stem cell will also constitute murder then? I am not convinced by your 'artificial' tag for cloning, because, I would object to killing a cloned baby, even if it was produced artificially.
What do you think?
I am against stem cell research when it comes to growing and harvesting them from fertilized eggs and such ("embryonic"), including the destruction of those unused cells.
However, if they came from a source (such as those found in the spinal cord) of the person being treated or a donor, that would be acceptable, and, according to research, are just as effective as "embryonic" stem cells.
In that case, only way I see is if a technology exists to remove the fetus from the uterus and transfer it to an artifical incubator even as early as 2 or 3 months of pregnancy, so that the woman doesn't have to endure pain for prolonged period. But right now we don't have the technology. The NICU equipments in hospitals don't have that kind of sophistication.
A more simple solution would be adoption. No need for any such technology. I mean, the idea is commendable, and would be far better than abortion. But until is feasible, adoption is the best option.
Best,
