I somewhat agree. I see the whole religion side (being Catholic) as well. However, it seems to me from this article that they are technically destroying cow embryo's to make these stem cells not human? Only human DNA is being used. I don't know, not a scientist. But, I had thought that I read another place that they had found alternative methods (like this) to creating stem cells that don't require the destruction of human embryos. If that is true then it should make a compromise suitable for both sides, and any whining beyond it is just a bunch of asses wearing blinders. And they do use these chimeras for lots of other stuff. I saw a deal on the science channel where they crossed goats with spider DNA so the goat milk produced the same protein that spiders use to make spider silk allowing them to extract the protein and duplicate the strongest material on earth.
