Stem Cell Research

I know that I have written about Stem cell research here before and I don't want to jump on that train too much again. I don't want to use this as my bully pulpit for politics either, but I would like to direct your attention to a story on www.foxnews.com, Bush Set To Veto Stem Cell Research Bill. The title isn't completely accurate for the president is not opposed to stem cell research, only embryonic stem cell research.

This should be a hot issue for all Christians. Adult stem cells and stem cells taken from amniotic fluid show great promise for future cures for disease (see my post Hopes Falsely Tied to Embryonic Stem Cell Research). Whether you completely agree with our president or not, he needs to be supported in this issue. He is standing firm in his rightly held convictions though they are not popular. I thank our president for standing firm on this issue of serious concern in our world.
