The future has arrived a lot faster than some people would have thought. Just hours after Barack Obama was inaugurated, the FDA has approved a scientific stem cell study that will use human embryonic stem cells.Embryonic stem cell research has been a huge issue in recent presidential campaigns, but now with this FDA approval and with President Obama in office, this research is likely to begin as early as this summer.
This initial research will test whether embryonic stem cells are safe to use in spinal injury patients.
These embryonic stem cells come from four or five day old embryos, which have the ability to turn into any cell in the body.
However, there is one huge problem.
When these stem cells are removed from the embryo, the embryo is destroyed.
That is why this research has been so controversial.
Because it kills babies.
This is just another sign that the United States cares very little about life or about obeying God.
We create human embryos and we do whatever sick things we want to with them.
There was an article in USAToday the other day that left us totally stunned.
The article described how there are approximately half a million frozen embryos sitting around in storage in fertility clinics across the United States.
Half a million frozen babies.
Just sitting there.
According to USAToday, only about two-thirds of the "owners" of these embryos said they were ever likely to use them.
So what is going to happen to all of the leftover embryos?
According to the article, more than half of the "parents" of these embryos responding to a survey said that they were "very unlikely" to donate their "extra embryos" to another couple trying to have a baby.
What the survey did find was that the most popular option was donating the embryos for research.
How sick is that?
Just think about that.
There are already a half million frozen babies sitting around in clinics and that number is increasing all the time.
A huge portion of these embryos will never be used by the "parents", and the most popular option for "disposing" of these embryos appears to be donating them for "research".
The truth is that the United States has rejected the value of human life in a multitude of ways.
We have thrown God's ways to the side and we have embraced our own "wisdom" in the name of convenience.
It is time for America to wake up and to realize the tremendous sins against human life that are being committed all across the nation:

So, if you were diagnosed with, say, Parkinson's disease you will reject any stem cell therapy offered to you. Will you make that pledge here, in print? Or, are you all talk and no conviction?
