Umbilical cords are thrown away, however, now they can be used to help find cures for Cancer, Aids, Alzheimer's etc. Why would you not promote such a miracle? If you feel it is "playing God" or ethically wrong don't you think one sacrifice is a well worth sacrifice if it could save or treat thousands of children with these terrible diseases?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20534638.post-1142357461720598512006-03-14T09:31:00.000-08:002006-03-14T09:31:00.000-08:00I believe that whatever a person believes is what ...I believe that whatever a person believes is what is right to him. Every day people tell us that what we believe in is right, but it seems to happen that these same people are changing their minds when it comes down to G-d or religion. If you believe G-d is a girl, than G-d is a girl, same concept if you believe G-d is a white man, or a black child. Whoever you believe to be your G-d, whoever you believe, or however, you believe that this world came into being, that’s the way it happened, because in this world belief is everything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20534638.post-1142305446917007992006-03-13T19:04:00.000-08:002006-03-13T19:04:00.000-08:00I don't agree that cloning is right.

I understand the scientific idea that it would be an incredible break-through to be able to accomplish such a feat, but the moral aspects of this are just wrong. It was also take away the fact that everyone is an individual and no two people are exactly alike.

I am a girl and I know how scary it would be have a baby. Sometimes for girls it just feels like the only option. But I am also opposed to abortion though. My brother was adopted and I hate to think about the fact that his birth mother, how was extremely young, could have easily decided to have an abortion. He wouldnt be here if she did and that is just so scary to think about. I dont know though, I think the girl has the right to choose.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20534638.post-1142013253893451822006-03-10T09:54:00.000-08:002006-03-10T09:54:00.000-08:00I am a firm believer in intelligent design. To me...I am a firm believer in intelligent design. To me it takes more faith that out of nothing came this whole world. At one point someone would have had to create those two atoms that magically colided together to create the world. It is impossible for those atoms to have just come out of nothing. There would have had to be a person that created the world, and everything that went along with it. We as humans will never understand everyhting, but how could this whole world, and everything that goes along with it come out of nothing. The way DNA works was not an accident. It is a complex miracle that had to have been created by an intelligent being.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20534638.post-1142011446093124452006-03-10T09:24:00.000-08:002006-03-10T09:24:00.000-08:00True, my creation beliefs are based on religion.

My parents did not make the decision for me, they just made it an option. After living in this world for 18 years, meeting amazing, intelligent people and seeing miraculous, unbelievable events and places I have formed my own opinion. There is not way this place is a mistake. I truly believe it was created by the miracle of God. I know it seems like a huge myth---but the crazy thing isnt, its just how cool God is!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20534638.post-1142007821238192522006-03-10T08:23:00.000-08:002006-03-10T08:23:00.000-08:00I have a problem with cloning.
