I don't understand why there is such misleading information out there regarding the stem cell research. His last sentence says it all. Adult stem cell (not to mention imbilical cord cells as well) have actually helped cure disease. Embryonic stem cells have cured none and the "hopes" of scientists are just that. In tests done the cells have actually been rejected in most cases. We really need to get the word out on this.
Embryonic stem cells were tried on a Parkinson's patient and had a very negative effect. Seems I recall the cells grew widly out of control and made the person profoundly worse.
