I was unaware of that. That is sad. I would have donated from both my boys as well, I am just opposed to it coming from and aborted baby or from fertilized eggs.
Rev, I was thinking about the exact same thing actually and I'm glad you brought it up. The whole ordeal about stem cell research was about taking the cells from the circumcised foreskin of newborn baby boys, but as we all know, there was a big ethics storm of that and it the entire Stem Cell Research was scuttled.

Originally posted by Detailed Perfection Thanks for the reply and information Smoke. It's already been mentioned before, but wouldn't this be considered cannibalism?
Originally posted by Detailed Perfection Thanks The consuming of human flesh. As far as I know, it's illegal in the US to consume human flesh. Maybe we should add the legality of partaking in such a practice as well as the morality of it.

Is there any way for stem cells to be collected from the post-birth placenta?
I support stem cell research as long it's helping to advance the process of finding cures for diseases and afflictions.
