stem cells

Stem cells provide DNA that can be used to clone organ tissue that is an exact match to the patient. Currently with organ and tissue transplants there is a high risk of organ rejection. With cloned tissue there is no such risk.

I think that stem cell research should be allowed to continue. I don't think that embryonic stem cells count as human life. I think this because there is a distinct difference between a stem cell and a fetus. Stem cell research can do a lot to help find cures for many horrible diseases.
