As a society we should always make sure to protect all human life no matter what. The side for human embryonic stem cell research says that there is a clear difference between human embryos and human beings, and that it is important to use the cells in medical research to benefit the human races quality of life.

Mouse embryonic stem cells. More lab photosHuman embryonic stem cell research is crucial in the search for curing many of the worldæ¯ medical conditions. A condition like Alzheimer's disease which has no cure, there is hoping that trough stem cell research it may be one day possible to cure the disease. Stem cell research could also effectively cure other degenerative diseases like Alzheimeræ¯. As a society we have the opportunity to possibly cure millions of people life deteriorating medical conditions by doing nothing more than harvesting and procuring human embryonic stem cells. We as a society should be compelled to further the research on these cells for the benefits that may come from it.
