- deadapostle, on 12/03/2008, -2/+10Wait a second... Groundbreaking surgery involving birth-related byproducts occurring in the United States? I was pretty sure we fell behind the world when we screwed with stem cell research.
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -7/+5Yet liberals are usually pro choice...Hmm....
a double shot of hypocrisy anyone?- sgtbutterscotch, on 12/03/2008, -2/+4Maybe it's because I'm tired, but I fail to see the hypocrisy.
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+3No?
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -8/+2Yeah you can't seeing that you're all kids incapable of understanding some concepts:
Liberal supports life with stem cell research
Liberal supports death with pro choice abortion
It can't be laid out any easier than that. - TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+4Liberals are pro-choice for abortion. To be hypocrites (an concept i don't think you understand), they would have to oppose stem-cell research, and try to argue that the stem cells are human lives.
Tool. Try to understand a subject before you write condescending comments to the people who recognize you don't understand *****. - saqer, on 12/03/2008, -6/+1haha either you're very confused or you're trying to twist definition into your own personal understanding. Are you seriously suggesting that pro choice and stem cell research are on the same level? Not the sharpest tool in the shed are you?
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+3Yeeeeahhh.........Ok, I think you might be a tad bit confused.......
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro-choice
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_controversy
Read those, it's basic stuff that will help you understand the fundamentals, but I think it will help you. - zeblith, on 12/03/2008, -2/+2ASDFJKL IT'S A TRAP. Don't feed the troll. Don't feel the troll!
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -6/+2all you can do is give me some wikipedia links? Lame. It's all very clear to me now. To escape scrutiny for your hypocrisy all you can do is try to change the definition. By the way stem cell research controversy is longer an issue seeing that stem cells can be harvested from adult skin cells.
Pro choice - death to a fetus
Stem Cell - life to a fetus - TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+2holy...*****......
do you not understand this
pro-choice - "death" to a fetus
Stem-cell research - "death" to stem cells
Maybe you should have read the wikipedia articles? - saqer, on 12/03/2008, -3/+2WOW. The most farfetched argument. Look at the results buddy. Abortion helps a fetus DIE while stem cells helps the whole being survive. Are you as oblivious as you make yourself out to be?
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+1There is no point to this, I'm going to go argue with a Christmas tree now, or something that has a better understanding of stem-cell research.
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -4/+2Yeah, take the coward's way out. You really don't have any idea and in your attempt to strengthen your argument you project pure hypocrisy. Pathetic.
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -2/+2Well, i intended to just read you comment, but your notion of internet arguing being in some way or shape honorable brought a smile to my face, so i should thank you for that, and i was glad to hear your views on stem cell research.
good day sir. - saqer, on 12/03/2008, -3/+2I thought you were going to go talk to your Christmas tree. If you don't understand the different types of stem cell research perhaps you shouldn't waste your time reading about the subject. Or perhaps if you read it to your christmas tree it'll help you understand it better.
- Jibberwalk, on 12/03/2008, -1/+2I LIKE PEENIES IN MY POOPER!!!
- deadapostle, on 12/03/2008, -1/+4I somehow feel responsible for opening the door and letting the troll in.
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -2/+2troll to you just means something that represents the truth that you can't handle.
- MeatyMcBeef, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7Umbilical cord research is not prohibited in the US. It's the use of fertilized embryos and dead fetus tissue that is banned. At least as far as I know, if I'm wrong correct me?
- Prismatic, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4My understanding is that it's not banned, it just doesn't receive any federal funding, which leaves it up to the private sector to fund.
- insomniac8400, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3Which is very bad, because if the private sector funds it, the private sector owns it.
- saqer, on 12/03/2008, -7/+5Yet liberals are usually pro choice...Hmm....

- Moosejoose, on 12/03/2008, -0/+12Damn spammers lately.
Stop spamming your stupid link.
I don't want to play your lame ass games. - dawnraid, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7Btw you websites *****.
Now piss off. - netneutrality, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3What the heck is with these spammers? And then we had that horse-sex video guy spamming about 20 articles a few days ago. The links stayed there for four and a half hours.
Are people not clicking the 'Report' link or are Digg being useless at responding to it? Remember to bury + report, folks!
- Moosejoose, on 12/03/2008, -0/+12Damn spammers lately.
- Zervaman, on 12/03/2008, -4/+14This is why we need to make sure stem cell research gets proper funding!!!
Stem cells = potential to drastically improve the lives of millions
Religion: ***** off. A bunch of undifferentiated cells is no more human than a plant. GTFO of my government.- zeblith, on 12/03/2008, -5/+7Dugg for "Religion: ***** off."
- kakwakas, on 12/03/2008, -2/+4At least the Amish keep to their own when it comes to medical options that they disagree with...
- MeatyMcBeef, on 12/03/2008, -2/+6Ironic. You tell one group to shut up and ***** off yet if someone were to tell you to take your beliefs and cram it you'd be upset. I'm not taking sides per say, just pointing out ignorance.
Gotta love America. Everyone thinks their right is the only right...- insomniac8400, on 12/03/2008, -0/+5You are making a flawed argument. The two sides are not equal. The religious side involves forcing their own beliefs onto others by restricting things they disagree with for everyone. The non-religious/freedom side involves letting everyone to freely do or not do something as they please according to their own personal beliefs.
- MeatyMcBeef, on 12/03/2008, -2/+2You're saying that the non-religious want everyone to do as they please according to their own personal beliefs? There are plenty of non-religious people who do not want people to do as they please.
It's a human trait to want others to follow your beliefs regardless of whether or not they prescribe to your belief system or lack of belief system. - insomniac8400, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3Now you are just going off on a tangent of pointless statements. The fact is if a person with a religious belief chooses to do a job that entails doing something against their belief, that is their choice to make. If the job is against their beliefs and they will not violate their beliefs, they shouldn't do the job. And for some reason people let them get away with it because it's only one or two medications. What if someone's beliefs said no one should ever put drugs into their body? And they became a pharmacist, should they be allowed to receive a paycheck while doing no work? Not dispensing one medication is exactly the same thing as refusing to dispense all medications. If you become a pharmacist you dispense all drugs or you don't take the job. Period.
- rensyphon, on 12/03/2008, -1/+3Screw you. I'm sick of illogical, irrational, unscientific, pieces of crap like you trying to run my country.
Look, it's one thing to have a moral opinion ("Jesus saves," "murder is wrong," "improving the lives of millions is good," etc). It's another thing entirely to not realize it. There's nothing more irrational than someone who makes decisions in the name of morality while claiming that he's above morality.
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -1/+3Great story, with all of the bad stuff going on in this world, it's always good to read something like this.
- PapaBoojum, on 12/03/2008, -2/+5How do they know someone didn't just fool them by switching out the unhealthy twin for the healthy one?
- redpixie, on 12/03/2008, -0/+5Once again, Hooray for Stem Cell Research and for govenments who don't ban it because they have no fricken understanding about it.
*Waits for diggs down from the idiots who think "embryonic" (pluripotent) stems cells come exclusively from "dead babies".* - stinieroo, on 12/03/2008, -0/+5Is saving umbilical cord blood common occurrence now? She was four when she received treatment and the article says her parents saved the cord blood at birth.
It makes since, with all of the advancements of stem cell research. But four years ago these parents thought to do this? Wow.- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -1/+3http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/04/13/health/m ...
If you look at this article from 2004, it asks if umbilical cord blood banking is "playing on fears".........i guess it wasn't.
- TheManikin, on 12/03/2008, -1/+3http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/04/13/health/m ...
- AgentG96, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3I'm a type 1 diabetic since age 1 and if stem cells are a cure, then I hope future generations are able to take advantage of them. I say future because I'm too old, 24, for that type of treatment to work on me.
Go stem cells! - rheaume, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3Finally, I hope this is the beginning of a world changing period in medicine
- TinababyK, on 12/03/2008, -0/+2A start of New ERA.
- TrueSecrets, on 12/03/2008, -0/+1Cord cells are very helpful for a number of illnesses as well as politically correct to all parties. People should be made aware of the uses of cord blood.
- wiresaw, on 01/02/2009, -0/+1Nice Story.. The Rumors is now True...
