A proposal to legalize the destruction of viable, human embryos (read: babies at their tiniest) for the purpose of scientific "research" will likely face voters this November.  And when you hear the mad scientists (h/t Clydes Dale) rave about all of the Faustian benefits we could reap, hey, it sounds like a pretty good deal.  Except for that pesky little fact that the research they want to perform literally destroys human life.  

Here are the facts:

A- Embryonic stem cell research has produced 0 cures and treatments.  0.  With a Z.

B- Adult stem cell research has produced HUNDREDS of cures and treatments, a small, peer-reviewed sample of which are available at this link.

C- Stem cell research is already legal in Michigan.  It isn't just OK, it's wonderful if scientists want to pursue life saving and improving cures and treatments by using adult and cord blood stem cells.

D- Backers of embryonic stem cell research (and baby killing) argue that they need to harvest the human beings to get to something called "pluripotent stem cells."  These are the cells that they believe can be changed and shaped and twisted to produce cures and treatments.  What they don't tell you is that researchers identified this year a method to harvest these critical cells from ADULT skin cells.  Without killing a single embryo.

E- That means that embryonic stem cell research is, quite literally, obsolete.  Backers of this petition plan are expected to spend tens of millions of dollars on a TV ad campaign to convince voters to support outdated science.  

Makes a guy wonder, why the giant effort to legalize people killing?  Seriously.  Why?
