What an asspirate

"I think the work that's going on in this field is very exciting. The only thing I'm saying is you cannot sacrifice a human life, no matter how small, for the benefit of a third party. I think it's elitist medicine and utterly narcissistic. There are so many other adult stem cell alternatives available to find cures for diseases." - full article

I really can't believe these people who oppose human stem cell research using embryos on the basis of saving human life. That is the most hypocritical excuse I've ever heard. Why don't they stop eating because when you eat you are consuming living things. These same people probably support the death penalty. Even if they don't, basing their arguement on such a simplistic reason while they live the rest of their lives in direct opposition to that reason is insanity. They have this distorted view of what life is and most likely it has to do with their ridiculous religious beliefs and all that god created humans bullpucky. Clueless fuckballs. You see how this man says it is "narcissistic." That tells you something important. It tells you he has no good reason to oppose stem cell research and that his human life arguement is complete bullshit. He just thinks it is wrong based on previously formed opinions that have nothing to do with human life. Read his words, they contradict each other. He says "the only thing I'm saying is you cannot sacrifice a human life, no matter how small." But then in the same sentence he adds the remark about it being narcissistic. If he was just about saving human life no matter how small, the fact that is was narcissistic shouldn't matter at all. Yet somehow it becomes the crux of his arguement. A very weak crux. Fucking loser.
