Possible Break Through In Stem Cells


Scientists have used ordinary skin cells in mice and caused them to act like embryonic stem cells. If this can be replicated with human skin cells, it will make the destruction of unborn babies unnecessary for embryonic stem cell research. To read more about it, just click here.

If this does work, I wonder if those bent on the destruction of human embryos will actually stop. Will they find another reason to do research on human embryos? Keep in mind, there have never been any promising results from embryonic stem cell research. The use of adult stem cells, on the other hand, have been very beneficial, but it does not require the killing of an embryo (baby). Let us pray that this new procedure works out!
