Obama Admin OKs First Taxpayer-Funded Embryonic Stem Cell Research

[juliee]

Washington, DC – The Obama administration today authorized the first study using embryonic stem cells paid for at taxpayer expense. Earlier this year, President Barack Obama issued an executive order overturning President Bush’s limits preventing taxpayers from being forced to pay for the destruction of human life.

I pay taxes because I believe that freedom isn’t free.

I pay taxes because I believe that we need a government to protect and defend our freedoms and our sovereignty.

I pay taxes because I believe that we all need to chip in to help out those that can’t help themselves.

I pay taxes because I believe that our governement should fuel mankind to be the best that it can be.

But none of this means anything unless we have morals. Unless we do this for the common good of all mankind. From the womb to the grave we have a responsiblity as human beings to look our for one another and to preserve the fundamental freedoms that God gave us.

I do not pay taxes to harvest dead children. Our governement should be ashamed at how they abuse the money that we give them in good faith to make the world a better place.

Shame on them.

 

[Mark77]

**These people have no shame, they are the pure definition of arrogance!
**
“We are dealing here with the vast question as to how we can and cannot know God, how we are related to God and how we can lose him. The arrogance that would make God an object and impose our laboratory conditions upon him is incapable of finding him. For it already implies that we deny God as God by placing ourselves above him, by discarding the whole dimension of love, of interior listening; by no longer acknowledging as real anything but what we can experimentally test and grasp. To think like that is to make oneself God. And to do that is to abase not only God, but the world and oneself, too.” “Jesus of Nazareth” Papa Benedictus XVI, (p. 37)

This is so sad. It makes me feel disgusting.
It is getting very under-reported too…

More misinformation from LifeSite.

Since the 1995 Dickey-Wicker Amendment, federal law has prohibited the use of federal funds for the destruction of embryos. President Obama’s Executive Order did not and cannot override that law. President Bush’s Executive Order in 2001 allowed the use of federal funds for research on stem cell lines that were created before August 9, 2001. Obama’s Execute Order research using stem cell lines created after that date eligible for federal funding; however, it is still illegal to use federal funds to create new lines, which requires destroying an embryo.
