You’re smarter than most of the people that voted this morning in Tucson.
so the only No reason is moral? how biased.
Those are your choices (about the woman).
The poll was written by people that get paid to write. You know, "journalists". I think that's why so many polls are so poorly written. They either really can't write objectively and effectively or advancing their agenda overrules any professionalism they could have developed.
ping
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
No, it is morally wrong AND scientifically stupid.
It’s not the business of government to distort research priorities with tax dollars.
This is money poured down the drain to satisfy the Planned Parenthood baby killers.
I think we zapped it. The no’s are ahead now.
58% say NO now. This poll will disappear soon.
For all those who haven't voted yet, let's try and get the "no" as high as we can. There are evil ones still out there and we will slay them by uniting like we always do as a force for good here on FR.
The two answers are a straw man argument. It isn't a choice between doing something important and doing something immoral. Given the consistent failure of ESCs to produce any viable therapies as opposed to ASCs and CBSCs which have done very well the poll choice is a logical fallacy.
The real choice is between funding an immoral course of research that holds no real promise and funding a morally neutral course of research that holds great promise. That makes the decision to pursue ESC research immoral on two grounds. One; it takes a human life. Two; it deprives successful research of needed funding.
Liberals can say nothing without lying.
It may have, I couldn’t find it!
