Embryonic Stem Cell Research a "Gift from God"?
Leave it to Nancy Pelosi to make something so profoundly wrong into something profoundly wrong and sacrilegious. Calling science "a gift of God to all of us" and then in the same breath saying that science has given us embryonic stem cell research that is "biblical" in its power to cure, Nancy Pelosi really went over the top with her attempts at whitewashing.
And I'm not sure what she means by "biblical"-- does she mean miraculous? She must because it would be a miracle for embryonic stem cells to cure anyone at this point. No one is being treated with embryonic stem cells-- nil, zilcho-- no human trials at all.
All of the research we've been seeing about the successes in stem cell research are concerning stem cells retrieved from ethical sources such as umbilical cord blood or the patient's own stem cells. And yup, we have them in our own bodies-- one of the richest sources of stem cells? Right in your sniffer. That's right, way up in your nose is one of the richest sources of stem cells in your own body.
Next time we hear Pelosi or some other pro-abortion politician invoke God's blessing on the destruction of these little ones, be sure to duck-- the lightning is probably on its way.

Anybody who has studied eschatology (the study of end times) knows that Scripture warns us that the antichrist will come with "signs and wonders."
Or the promise of signs and wonders...
We'll sell our very souls for this pie in the sky.
I agree. Talk about selling your soul-- I think one of the biggest hurdles in this debate is pride. There are many scientists who have dedicated themselves to pursuing embryo-destroying stem cell research (ESCR) and are bent on continuing.
Despite evidence showing the phenomenal potential of adult stem cell research and the fact that this research is already saving and prolonging many lives, many ESCR researchers are not willing to say that their way is the worst way to go.
