Embryonic Stem-Cell

The FDA recently granted permission to begin the country's embryonic stem-cell treatment on human subjects. The Geron Corporation is approved to inject embryonic stem-cells into 10 people paralyzed from the chest down, by spinal cord injuries. The question we pose today, is why are we killing embryos for their stem-cells, which to date has produced no success in any experiment, while the use of cord blood and adult stem-cells, has produced over 70 cures to date? We think there are two victims. The unborn baby, who is killed, and the spinal injured patient who is going to be experimented on.
