The Middle Ground

From the view of the Vatican, President Bush and the writer, they are  "against embryonic stem-cell research, and against cloning to create embryos for use in stem-cell research (or any research). But [they're] not against stem-cell research", meaning that there is in fact a middle ground. According to the editorial, it is immoral and cruel to take stem cells from an embryo for scientific research; however, that is not the case when they are adult stem cells. They are not the "pie in the sky" hope but are currently viable and many cases have been cured as a result. According to the editorial they satisfy all viewpoints and are moral and beneficial.
