To whom it may concern, I do not support the use of embryonic stem cell research as proposed in the "NIH Stem Cell Guidelines" I quote: II. Guidelines for Eligibility of Human Embryonic Stem Cells for Use in Research A. The Executive Order: Executive Order 13505, Removing Barriers to Responsible Scientific Research Involving Human Stem Cells, states that the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), through the Director of the NIH, may support and conduct responsible, scientifically worthy human stem cell research, including human embryonic stem cell research, to the extent permitted by law. Nor do I ever want my tax dollars to support this barbarian practice. I am directly opposed to the abortion of human life at any stage and certainly opposed to then use that precious little life for a scientific experiment. I never thought I would see the day when human life was so reduced to a mere approval of a bill or a sign off on paper. We should all be ashamed of ourselves for corrupting God's creation so.
