Synthesis of Stem Cell Opinions

Personally, I believe that stem cell research, whether the stem cells come from the Embryo or other sources,   are completely moral. Unlike the catholic church and conservatives who are "against embryonic stem-cell research, and against cloning to create embryos for use in stem-cell research", I believe that the benefits far out way the small negatives. The anti stem cell activists only evidence to back their position up is that stem cell research is immoral and hurts embryos. But the fact of the matter is that the only embryos being used are embryos that would have been aborted and the stem cells can come from other locations in the adult body. The greatest benefit to stem cells is that "Stem cells are cells that can become any of the two hundred and twenty different cell types present in the human body", and many scientists support this view. It is clear that the benefits of stem cell research carry a greater value than the few negatives.

    Your own views on stem cell research will be more credible as you synthesize these with existing, published opinions. Note how your sources are unauthored; further, with whom do you agree, disagree, qualify? Whoa re the 'many scientists' you cite? and from what source?
