By: Bishop Furfaro

 It is the use of stem cells that can repair parts of the body that have been damaged through hereditary genes  Alzheimer's, Diabetes, MS, etc.  However obtaining the stem sells is the morally questionable part

 It is frowned upon because the only way to get a large amount of stem cells is from a fertilized human embryo.  Some find this morally wrong because once the egg is fertilized it is seen as a living thing

 This video will show the good part of stem cell research  n n

 The good side to stem cell research is that it could provide us with the means to save millions in the future from many of the diseases that plague our society now  In 20 years cancer might have a cure that will remove any chance from it coming back to the host body  Or we might have a way to stop our bone density from decaying from old age

 My opinion on the topic of stem cells and if its morally correct to research into is that it is necessary to cure many things in our society. However there must be another way to do it. It sounds like the doctor in the CBC video is on the verge of a major break through in stem sell research
