Embryonic stem cell research in nearly ten years hasn't turned up any cure.?

after nine years and billions of dollars with little or no results, do you think it is time to stop destroying embryos ( killing babies) and focus on other methods. I am not saying I am against stem cell research, but only if the stem cells come from a method that do not destroy an embryo. i.e. adult, cord blood, amneotic fluid, or other measures that do not involve destroying embryos. By the way this is basiclly the same stance our president takes on the issue for all of you who think he just wants to kill the whole program.

Embryonic stem cell research in nearly ten years hasn't turned up any cure.?
And it won't be used for any "cures" either. Adult stem cell research is the only body of science that has published case studies of actual applied benefit to it. Why would you want the stem cell of another person implanted in your brain or spine, if you have a neurological condition, when you would then have to take anti-rejection meds for the rest of your life? Stem cells can be harvested from your sinuses, and re-implanted elsewhere in your body. It is being done now with documented therapeutic benefit.
