Why wouldn't scientists use adult stem cells if they worked better? Do you think they really just hate fertilized embryos?

If adult stem cells work better, then great. But I will trust the scientists over the religious zealots every time.

        Well get IVF banned, and then we can talk about banning stem cell research - ND_in_ATL - 11:03pm 3/25/09
        This is the exact right result. For now, it is inexcusable (and anti-life) to not use the stem cells [NT] - NDFaninNJ - 9:43am 3/26/09
