Have they identified the molecules that are associated with any one function or characteristic? Is the eagerness to jump into experimental trials "to see if it works and heals" an ethically good and responsible act? Or, is it little more than hope, wish and "a shot in the dark". Have they infected a rat or a monkey with a disease and tried to cure it with stem cells of their kin folk? Why not? How many patients will have to be misled into thinking there ia basis for the promise of success, based on no previous results? How many, will grow, the equivalent, of an ear on the leg or kidney? At what point will medical experimentation, exceed the unethical boundaries reach in the Nazi prison camps? Why is there no computer model of one, anyone, Stem Cell?
