D dnldslk New member Jul 21, 2009 #2 Embryonic stem cell research kills an embryo. Non-e research does not. All the controversy involves embryonic stem cell research only. 1. life begins at conception. Even proponents agree that this is the case. By killing an embryo you are killing a person., 2. There have been no medical advances made through embryonic stem cell research. All advances to date have only occused with non-embryonic research.

S Steve New member Jul 21, 2009 #3 Use the links I provide below, they are great for this.. they have both the pros and cons so you can also see what the other person might say. Really, the main argument against stem cell research comes from people who say that you are taking away a life, even if it has just been fertilized.
