Thread Name: BS: Stem cell policy to change
Subject: RE: BS: Stem cell policy to change
Years ago people thought that the attempt to perform transplants was unethical. Even as late as 1992 there was still opposition to artifical heart transplants claining it to be "evil". Today you'd hardly find anyone out side of a imbecile opposed to transplants. Well some folks are still coming out of the caves. As for going down slippery slopes, I'd say it more like the opposition to better medical advances is preventing the world to climb out of the places where those slippery slopes would have us staying. Old ways, tabboos, die hard.

As I said;
"This kind of research could've helped Reagan,,,,,,,,before he took office"

Thanks, from someone who only a short time ago would have been long in the grave if it weren't for the recent advances in the medical world.
