Without aborted fetal cells, there would be no hope to cure some diseases — or so we’re told. Of course, what abortion advocates always neglect to add is that fetal tissue has yet to cure any disease, while adult stems cells and other therapies have made inroads into that arena. Because of this, claims about the necessity of fetal tissue are losing more credibility each year, and a new scientific discovery from researchers at Lund University in Sweden<\/a>\u00a0renders even the loudest or arguments void.<\/p>\n

Not all stem cell research is unethical or relies on abortion to make positive scientific discoveries, as Live Action News has previously reported<\/a>. Placenta and umbilical cord stem cells<\/a> have been used in research, as have adult stem cells (where the most promising research has been seen, resulting in treatments for diseases). Despite this, those who advocate for stem cells from fetal tissue try to justify abortion by arguing that lives may be saved through the (still unsuccessful) use of this tissue for research.<\/p>\n
