Embryo Stem Cell Research

             In America, scientific research and technology are advancing every day. Scientists themselves have to read daily to learn the discoveries that have been revealed across the country. These new advances might be the missing link needed to find the cure for a major disease. For medical researchers across the globe, one crucial area of study today is a treatment for different types of cancer and heart disease. What appears to be the most effective way for most researchers is through embryo stem cells. Many states across America, such as New York, Maryland, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Washington, and Massachusetts, support the idea of embryonic stem cell research in hopes of advancing our current treatments of diseases.
             Support groups have also increased and contributed by donating mass money to different research labs. Universities and biotechnology companies have also stuck their feet in and become involved. Random citizens have donated millions of dollars for building stem cell research centers. With all the support for embryonic stem cell research, it would be difficult to keep it from advancing. However, President Bush's more powerful voice will not allow the research to continue. Bush sees it immoral for a human embryo to be killed for the use of its cells. On a positive note, Bush did specify that the research could carry on with the cells that have already been pulled from the embryos. Federal money could still be used to finance the research on the already extracted cells. However, there would not be any new embryos killed.
             One of the main arguments from those who object to embryo stem cell research is that there is no proof that any discoveries will even come. Some researchers honestly agree that if anything were to be discovered, it would not be soon, if at all. Others speak rather opposite. "This research holds tremendous promise for medical breakthroughs for things like spinal cord injury and diabetes, and most likely fo
