Medical researchers highly value stem cells because they can develop into many types of human tissue. Thus they hold promise for treating Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, spinal injuries and several other afflictions. Though some stem cells can be obtained from adult tissues, more versatile cells come from human embryos - creating an ethical divide among religious and political factions. • What's Your Opinion?
