I partly agree and partly disagree with stem cell research. The part that I do not agree with is where the researchers are using the embryo to get a stem cell. An embryo is a life because the process of forming a species is on and that is why the stem cell is present. Researchers are therefore killing a life, which is against the law, society morals, and religious beliefs. Also, I do not agree with the research in regenerating body organs which are not functioning. Regeneration of a body is similar to creating a life, which is the role of the creator and not human beings. I agree on the part of research using adult cells from umbilical cord or breast milk because there is no risk to life. However, the agreement is on condition that doctors will use it to cure a disease like anemia because that is not creating life like the case of organ regeneration. The research holds a promise to repair spinal cord injury, but it does not matter because that will be against society morals and believes in creating life. The spinal cord is part of the body which does not have a spare. Only the spiritual being that formed man should create.
