NEW YORK (ENI) "Right to Life" advocates have criticized U.S. President Barack Obama's decision to reverse policies of the administration of George W. Bush that limited federal funding for stem cell research. "It is a sad day when the federal government will fund research that exploits living members of the human species as raw material for research," Douglas Johnson, a spokesperson for the National Right to Life Committee, said in a statement. http://www.pres-outlook.com/news-and-analysis/1-news-a-analysis/8560-right-to-life-advocates-criticize-obama-on-stem-cell-research.html

You are wrong. I'm bashing the stupidity of the Christians who are ready to take GMOs in their own body, but go berserk about cloning a sheep. What if they clone a sheep with a monkey!?

The Catholic Church though says... "The Catholic Church is against embryonic stem-cell research because it involves the destruction of human embryos. Pope John Paul II said embryonic stem-cell research is related to abortion, euthanasia and other attacks on innocent life." http://www.americancatholic.org/news/stemcell/ *** Not everybody is so open minded about the issue as the Wise Tibetan Monkey. ;)
From: His Highness the TibetanMonkey, ComandanteBanana and Chief of Quixotic Enterprises on 20 May 2010 10:46 As the wheel of history turns, things often remain the same. Such are the conditions in the meat packing industry in 1906 when 'The Jungle' was written and in 2010 when powerful corporations decide what's safe for you and don't even inform you because you are 'too stupid' to make an informed decision. WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE! The Jungle The novels title symbolizes the competitive nature of capitalism; the world of Packingtown is like a Darwinian jungle, in which the strong prey on the weak and all living things are engaged in a brutal, amoral fight for survival. The title of the novel draws attention specifically to the doctrine of Social Darwinism, an idea used by some nineteenth-century thinkers to justify the abuses of wealthy capitalists. This idea essentially held that society was designed to reward the strongest, best people, while inferior people were kept down at a suitable level. By relating the story of a group of honest, hardworking immigrants who are destroyed by corruption and evil, Sinclair tries to rebut the idea of Social Darwinism, implying that those who succeed in the capitalist system are not the best of humankind but rather the worst and most corrupt of all. http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/jungle/themes.html
