If there is potential to save several lives by doing research on one thing, why not do it. If embryonic stem cell research was legal and governmentally funded we could save many lives from many diseases such as cancer, diabetes and spinal injuries. Stem cells can be used to repair vision making more people able to work and possibly increasing our
For example, the eyes, scientists could not tell if the medicine will cause blindness if they do not use animals on testing. Not only humans that benefit from these animal testing but animals themselves benefit from it too. Animal testing treated a lot of animal species from many deadly diseases using vaccines that are tested on them before. It also saved many types of animal species that are at risk from extinction. These vaccines have cured many sick animals back to normal and likewise enhanced their health in many ways.
Many people do not realize the significance this research can have on a human and society. This research can make paralyzed humans walk again. If this research was legal then who knows how far it can advance many different medical fields. It argued that this research is immoral because a fetus must be used, but this topic falls on all the same lines as abortion. The fetuses that come out of abortion can even be used in stem cell research.
However, there are many who oppose the use of embryonic stem cells in research, particularly among the pro-life community. The use of stem cells from human embryos has stirred controversy because of its associations with abortion, still thought to be immoral by conservative elements of the debate. Because the human embryo has to be destroyed in order to harvest the stem cell, it is claimed to be akin to murder by those anti-abortion elements. In this paper, the history of litigation in the US regarding stem cell research will be examined and compared to the declarations made in other countries throughout the world. In light of the
English 101 15, Dec 2010 Stem Cell Research Debate I chose to write on stem cell research because I have always heard things retaining to it but have never realized what it is or if it could affect me some how, I just knew it had to do with government which automatically meant it would be controversial. Once I realized it would be controversial and it had to with the medical field coming up with cures for illnesses I knew it was the right choice. What makes this so controversial is because the government got to decide whether it would be allowed because not everyone was for this research. I did not find this essay because it was important to me but I guess it could be important if I relate it to two of my grandparents who died from multiple
Some of these factors that contributed to the motivation of seeking cosmetic surgery were cultural conflicts and the wish to avoid being stereotyped as alien. (Meyer Et Al 1960) Also, some previous studies conclude that this kind of surgery produces a positive psychological effect by improving one’s quality of life. But researches also suggested that the effect or outcome of cosmetic surgery to an individual depends on the satisfaction and expectation of the patient towards the outcome. According to a Leesburg plastic
Why continue to test animals that may give inaccurate results on products that can still be sold to the human race? Now there are groups who say that there is no alternative to animal testing, and that animals have saved many human lives, but if the
Many people believe it is a perfectly ethical way to assist in infertility and to help women who desire to get pregnant. Others would say, for example, that it is wrong to take God’s work into your own hands and conceive a child through different means than He intended. There are also numerous things that could sway someone either way. For example, someone who has a friend that is infertile might be more biased to approving of artificial insemination, as opposed to someone who does not. Though there are faults with both sides, everybody has their own reasons for supporting or not supporting artificial insemination.
Humans are, after all, logical creatures. However, humans are also emotional, and it seems this appeal is commonly ignored, and in turn our emotional habits toward animals and the environment are diminishing. When people are expected to be selfish and self-important, people act selfish and self-important. By furthering the process of appealing to a public on an egotistic level, it enables the
Many companies use animal trials to test out the safety of new drugs, pesticides, medication, food additives, packing materials, and anything else with chemical ingredients. Testing the toxicology of these substances would be impossible (at least ethically) to do, as it would be
