The thing that sets me off is that abortions are happening and perfectly good stem cells are destroyed rather than saved.
In the U.S., about 1.37 million abortions are performed each year. If we can harness the potential in those stem cells for research, how many could be saved from the medical science they create? And then, we're talking about actual lives. People, with personalities, with friends, with family, brothers and sisters and father and mothers and such. Actual people, not bundles of cells no one cares about to begin with.
