Preparation Outline for informative speech: Stem Cell Research Title: The Wonders of Stem Cell Research Thesis: Stem cell research is a very controversial topic, today I will give you some information about the research, so you can decide for yourself if stem cell research should be allowed to continue or not. Introduction: * (Attention material: visual ) Do any of you know who this man is? Well he is Dr. James Thomson, one of the leading scientific innovators in the research of stem cells. (Audience connection) I’m sure at some point you have all heard about stem cell research. Maybe just like me you too just don’t know enough about the subject to have a well-informed opinion of you own.
Although these cells are unspecialised they can only develop into a specific type of cell. A lot of research has been put into stem cells as we can remove them an embryo, and in theory use them to use them for: * Making new brain cells for people with Parkinson’s disease. * Rebuilding bones and cartilage * Repairing damaged immune systems * Making replacement heart valves Although this sounds very exciting, a lot of social and ethical issues have come about, due to the stem cells used for research coming from human embryos. As a result, the government has kept a close eye on the research being done. The main ethical issue is that many people, due to their religion or personal opinion believe that destroying human embryos is a form of murder.
The next principal that is distinctive to Catholic education is the evangelisation and education is interlinked. This is true in this case. Evangelisation is the call to conversion and teachers are expected to teach children about God and about the Catholic religion. In a way, they are converting the children to Catholicism, which in my opinion should be the job of the church and parents. The teachers spend religion classes informing and preaching to children about Jesus and his life on earth and the main events and miracles of his life.
He was very important in some ways, but in some he wasn’t. He was often known as “The Father of Immunology”. This is because he has saved more lives than anyone else before him has. One way in which he wasn’t so important was that he didn’t understand the science of germs, and he didn’t know how it worked, so no more vaccines were made at that time, because no-one knew about germs and bacteria. Also, the idea was very slow to be accepted because many people such as inoculators were opposed to it because they thought they would lose business and people thought that something could go wrong or they could die, so they didn’t want to use it.
Is it because we don’t even know what HPV is or maybe it’s because we are not informed about the vaccine, or could it be we know about the vaccine but it’s too expensive for the average person? Before staring my research on this paper I myself didn’t really know much about HPV. I don’t know if it’s because the spot light isn’t really on HPV but is on things such as HIV AIDS and other STD’s or is it because it’s not really talked about. All I knew was when I go to the doctor’s office to get my yearly pap smear my doctor asks me if I want the vaccine. My response has always been no.
Even spread the faith to different countries that had many Protestants. By the time that Loyola died, the Jesuits had already spread out to Africa, India, Japan and America. The Jesuits also made the Catholic Church look kind of decent after the whole Martin Luther incident. My second reason why the Counter Reformation had a positive effect on European history is that the Catholic Church had fixed many of its problems. The group that wanted change in the church was the council of Trent, invented by Pope Paul the 3rd.
Positive and negative sides of screening the human genome. After many years of hard work,a group of scientists finally discovered one of the most important secrets for human beings: the decodification of our genome. This scientific revolution, which looks like a story taken out of a science-fiction book, poses a number of doubts about what the future of the human race will be like and how this information will be used by science. In most of the cases, there seem to be positive and negative sides. The screening of the human genome is not an exception.
With the world’s advanced medical technology, parents can now ask their doctors to detect genetic disease and abnormalities during a pregnancy. For parents who go through in vitro fertilization, the doctor could check each and every embryo for defects and choose the healthiest ones to be selected for a full term pregnancy. To some, this may seem like a good idea because you could prevent having children with any life threatening syndromes or illnesses. To others, this means a very thin line between terminating pregnancies because of a defect, or because it has the wrong hair color or eye color traits that you
After President Bush limited embryonic stem research government funds, many labs were forced to seek private funding to continue research. In March 2009 President Barack Obama lifted the federal funding ban for embryonic stem cell research, so the government could give financial support to federal and state agencies to continue embryonic stem cell research. President Obama spoke on the issue in 2009: "Medical miracles do not happen simply by accident. They result from painstaking and costly research, from years of lonely trial and error, much of which never bears fruit, and from a government willing to support that work...Ultimately, I cannot guarantee that we will find the treatments and cures we seek. No President can promise that.
In education especially the control of the church was used to influence future generations in its favour. Leaders of the church were sympathetic to nationalists if there was no violence involved in their movements but after the Anglo-Irish Treaty 1921, they were in favour of the free state. During the civil war they even would excommunicate republicans so when there was peace in 1923 bishops were confident to be highly influential in the new state especially since it was a mostly catholic population. In the 1920s many Free State citizens thought the granting of independence as a triumph for the long time suffering Irish catholic against the officially protestant British state. This strengthened the view of the catholic religion with Irish identity and with a widespread decline of the Irish language; many valued their catholic religion as one of their main signs of their Irish identity.
