We may be near a major breakthrough in the fight for an HIV cure.

But its stemcells so well never get it here in merkka.

But we have stem cells with 100% less zygote now!

Wowee!

But a true connoisseur can tell the difference.

Oh man, this is going to send the Fundies crazy, as they love AIDS and hate stem cells.

Man, he went through some serious shit for it to work, but hopefully it something that could be perfected over time...Still though, a cure!

Our stem cells are totally dildoes.

I'm somewhat mind boggled that this happened on accident.

A 4 year old girl in the UK has apparently gained sight due to stem cell treatment as well.

All of which is good, if true.  However, two very optimistic scenarios about the wonders of stem cell treatment being reported at the same time....it doesn't look like the labs are pushing it, since the girl was treated in China, but I don't think I'm stepping over a line by suggesting someone might be.

Or someone is trying to get Amurrica™ all riled up so they can laugh at us.

In both of these cases, the stem cells involved were adult stem cells.  All of the fundies I know are in favor of adult stem cell research, mainly because they like to cite those breakthroughs as proof that we don't need to do any embryonic stem cell research.

Completely missing the point of "I'm aborting this embryo anyway. Why don't we just make some good out of this?"

They don't care.

Since their view is that abortion is 1st degree murder on a massive scale, their position is that any gains from it are poisoned fruit, much as Mengele's and Eichmann's work was all discarded after WWII.
