THE STEM CELL DEBATE IS DEAD!!

I am not sure Dr. Oz will be back on the Oprah show, even after being a long time guest of Oprah. Her face was priceless after Dr. Oz shocking announces that "I think, Oprah, the stem cell debate is dead."


Ans then goes on to say"
The problem with embryonic stem cells is that embryonic stem cells come from embryos, like all of us are made from embryos, and those cells can become any cell in the body, but it’s very hard to control them and so they can become cancer."

"I can take a little bit of your skin, take those cells (iPSC), get them to go back in time so they are like they were when you were first made, and then they will start to make that dopamine and I think those cels, because they won’t be as prone to cancer and because they’re your genes will be the ones that are ultimately used to cure Parkinsons."


"I think we are single digit years away from making a big impact in the lives of Parkinson’s disease but also diabetics, heart disease, people who have had a lot of problems."

The reason her face was so priceless is that she realized the political implication of his statement. It means that it is unnecessary to destroy human life to cure these diseases, which until now we have been told is the only way to find a cure. How exciting that we can protect the most innocent lives and still find cures for these disabling diseases. Now I am sure President Obama and his allies will not protect these lives, as his record on protecting innocent life is abhorrent. And since facts matter little to the left, I am sure the battle will remain. No more than ever we can stand for what is right, and protect all human life!
