this is a grey matter and i did not mean to "go off" on lixy and am sorry if she thought that my comments were aimed at her.

my comments were made to make people think about what could be done if cloning of human cells (t-cells is my point but there are others) were allowed.

i will explain what a t-cell is :

a t-cell can become any other cell in the human body and is only availible from the umbilical cord and from a fetus. i am not for abortion so the only way to get enouph from an umbilical cord is to clone it.

a t-cell can become heart tissue to repair/replace heart tissue
a t-cell can become liver tissue to repair/replace liver tissue
a t-cell can become nerve cells to repair the spinal cord
a t-cell can become pancrease tissue to cure diabetes


that was my point in my post, not to bash anyone, i am sorry if i did. forgive me , i am sorry. this is just a touchy subject with me.

-lost ( i will get off my soap box now)
