The Moral Issues -- the Controversies Richard Doerflinger writes in the Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics that a human embryo is in fact a human being albeit that human is only in its first week of development. The embryo is one part of what Doerflinger calls "the continuum of human development that stretches from that first formation of a unique organism…" to the end of a person's life (Doerflinger, 2010, p
Bush Administration was (72). The Politics that Stalled Stem Cell Research On the subject of Bush and his policies -- he gave an executive order on August 9, 2011, that federal funds could be used only for those embryonic stem cells that existed on that date, putting a huge damper on progress into this vital research -- the former president was clearly courting the conservative Christian vote when he ran for office in 2000, and his election was paying dividends to that constituency (Hurlbut, 2006, p
On the other side of the issue is professor Insoo Hyun of the Department of Bioethics at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland Ohio. Hyun insists, "…it is simply false to claim that all early-stage embryos have the potential for complete human life" (Hyun, 2010, p
There were not enough votes to override the veto, and so important tools for conducting research were not to be made available during the Bush eight-year presence in the White House. Additional Ethical Approaches to Stem Cell Research To Philosophy professor Phillip Montague's (Western Washington University), the proposition that individuals who are now full-grown adults "…once existed as embryos from which stem cells could have been removed" is a flawed argument (Montague, 2011, p
2). An article in USA Today (Ritter, 2010) that was published by the Associated Press presents the news that transplants of adult stem cells have become "…a standard lifesaving therapy for perhaps hundreds or thousands of people with leukemia, lymphoma, and other blood diseases
com) and distributed 300,000 copies of a documentary called "George W. Bush: Faith in the white House" directly to churches (Smith, 2006, p
Christine Todd Whitman, who served Bush as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency in Bush's first term (she served from January 2001 to May 2003), and was the first female governor of New Jersey, supported embryonic stem cell research. Whitman noted in her book that right after Bush was re-elected in 2004, Christian conservative organizer Phil Burress was heard to say, "The president rode our coattails" (Whitman, 2006)
There is little question that the main source of stem cells is and is very likely to continue to be primarily from human embryonic tissue. Because of this, the vast majority of tissue used in stem cell research either comes from the tissue of aborted pregnancies, or from the "left over" or surplus embryos from fertility clinics (Berger, 2001)
. Scientists left to themselves may not always make the best ethics decisions (Nizza, 2004)
.is the destruction of the very early embryo immoral? Second, if a vaccine or tissue is generated from these human embryonic stem cells, would someone act unethically in using it (Shannon, 2004)?" For many, like the Catholics, the resounding answer to this question is that it is not moral to "use" human embryos, and that they are to be "
The only difference is that pro-life supporters are not taking a similar kind of stance on the issue in comparison with stem cell treatment. (Chad, 2004, pp
As a result, the majority of embryos and sperm are destroyed most of the time with this procedure. (Pence, 2007, pp
Whereas many proponents of stem cell research will argue that the entire process is designed to prevent these kinds of incidents. (Plunkett, 2007) to show how proponents of stem cell research are correct requires comparing the viewpoints of both sides
" This is significant, in showing how parthenogenesis is effective in being able produce stem cells. (Qingyun, 2007, pg
This is when the writer will create content that will agree with audience and challenge their thinking. (Snyder, 2009, pp
This means that these kinds of cells have the same types of properties as embryos and can be utilized for similar kinds of purposes. (Yidrim, 2011, pp
" However, recent studies have proposed that cell phone use does not cause cancer. Some researchers argue that the link between cell phones and cancer is nonexistent (Kolata, 2000)
" Still, even though customers are aware of the risks, phone sales continue to increase. Experts advise that studies that say there are no proven inks between cancer and cell phones are not the definitive answer to the debate on the health effects of cell phone use (Dwyer, 2000)
Cell Phones and Cancer In today's innovative era of technological breakthroughs, we enjoy many benefits of technology, which give us the power to get things done faster, enjoy greater convenience, and have access to wonderful tools that improve all areas of life (Siepmann, 2004)
