With this new break through attention and effort should be put into this. It doesn't cross the ethical line nor does it waste life. Honestly taking existing cells and turning them into stem cells sounds a lot easier than cloning.

In my opinion stem cell should not be done i dont think it is right.For one nobody knows when you are considered life so how do we know that when they create the stem cell and kill it it is not live yet. Also there i think is going to be one doctor that wants to see what the stem cell would look like when it grows up and that would not be good.Because mabye there would be alot of complications and it just would not be fair to the stem cell.
I think this is marvelous scientific breakthrough. Why haven't I heard of this? It almost sounds as if the media wants to continue using human embroys.
I think this is extremely beneficial for several reasons. Because this is from the individual's own skin cells, their body will not reject it. Using skin cells means they won't have to rely on an unsteady supply of human eggs. Also, they will not have to worry about creating humans in the embryotic stage only to kill them. By using the skin cells would not be violating the sacred triangle rights of protecting life( the baby in the embryotic stage) and they would continue to advance medical science.
