"It seems a shame that stem cell research is languishing due to ethical concerns."
They're languishing due to the GOP pandering to the religious "right".

"I would dare say it's probably the other way around."
Yes, it's a two way street there.

This is a very interesting series. It begs the question, for me at least, how best to increase support for this kind of research. Particularly the kind of regenerative therapies popularized by the likes of Aubrey de Grey that may be possible with stem cell research. It seems a shame that stem cell research is languishing due to ethical concerns.

after thinking this threw a little bit, it seems clear that the cytoplasm and the nucleus have equally important roles in the early kick off of life. i doubt that such a process would sway off the moral fighters.
i was originally thinking most people simply see the nucleus of the human as the "carrier for the soul"

question.
do we have the ability to instead create our own artificial cytoplasmic goo and instead of replacing the nucleus of an embryonic cell, replace the cytoplasm of a normal cell?
perhaps this would solve the religious ethics debate on "killing potential humans".

"do we have the ability to instead create our own artificial cytoplasmic goo and instead of replacing the nucleus of an embryonic cell, replace the cytoplasm of a normal cell?"
There is quite a bit of current research on parthanogenesis (causing an oocyte to double its genome and begin dividing).

Ban policy update:
Due to the actions of numerous repeat trolls, bans will now only be lifted on 4 month intervals, rather than 1 week intervals. Troll bans are set to be lifted on 12/15/07.
If you are worried that your comment will result in a ban, search through the already posted comments and see what caused others to be banned. Do not repeat their mistakes. If you exercise a minimal amount of tact, you will find that we are more than accommodating to both questions and valid criticisms.
