Bush really needs to ease up on the embryonic research. It makes me really itch when it comes up. There's a lot more that needs to be done and it's shooting science in the foot to rule out a whole nation of scientists from helping out in the later stages. If the US doesn't pick up soon, it runs a serious risk of falling far behind in these technologies - and when a final and practical use is finally made, such as developing 100% compatable replacement organs or anti-cancer treatments that focus on the cancer's stem cells instead of nuking entire tissues, then they'll be behind on that too.

Letting naive, right-leaning republicans rule does this. The fact is that the US has already made cross-species splices and chimeras - whatever sin against god they fear is pretty much already walking around going 'baa'. I don't know how they can highlight scary things like 'minotaurs' when there's such a huge possibility of profit involved in allowing them. I mean real money! Isn't that what drives those guys?

It makes me want to wave a finger at any of them that needed an organ transplant and scream 'DEMON! You have taken anothers flesh that you might live!!'. We should go picket them on how chimeric humans must be devils too. It's basically the same damn thing.
