Precisely. I'm not too well-versed on the mechanics of it all, but it seems to me that this stem cell business is the key to curing alot of major ailments.
Without wanting to harp on, this is the primary thing that annoys me about the religious groups protesting against this. They're dictating whether people they've never met before, and don't necessarily subscribe to the same God as them, are allowed to have access to medical care that can improve their quality of life. For my money, that is just intolerance, and should be fought as vehermantly as possible.
Anyways, that's just my two cents.
