I don't think a comparison of taking someone's money and the use of unused embryos for stem cell research is fair. If someone is savy enough to make a billion dollars they should be free to spend it as they will. Besides - Robbery is illegal. If an embryo isn't going to be used to attempt to create a viable fetus and is going to be 'tossed in the trash' then why not use it for research/a cure for many different diseases?? Why does this have to be a political issue at all?? FrankandTeri <[log in to unmask]> wrote: Raylin, from the bottom of my heart I do feel for the pain and problems you are going through. I feel for many who have diseases. Don't attempt to paint me as uncaring. This is typical of the liberal press. That is why they like you. You ask "what good comes from throwing embryos?" Many are only asking what are the ethical issues involved with this complex matter. That is the question you should be asking. You should be contributing to helping resolve the ethical questions not painting those that ask the questions as uncaring and evil. Let me provide you with a "simile" you know what that is don't you? What good does it do for one person to have a billion dollars? They could not spend it all. This should give you the freedom to rob them of some small amount. After all they would never miss it and it would do you so much good. The answer is... it would not be ethical. But of course the liberal press would back you up and defend you if you carried out that robbery. They would find some reason to blame others for your plight. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rayilyn Brown" To: Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 4:38 PM Subject: Re: liberal divisive garbage/Frank. > Frank, we need a cure real bad.
