Response to Joey Tennyson's Ethics and Medicine.

I completely agree with Joey's blog about ethics and medicine. I to also believe that there is a lot of conflict in the world revolving around stem cell research and the usage of it. Joey states how stem cell research works and what it can do to help people with things such as cancer and this seems that it would help many people. He also states why their is controversy due to the usage of embryos for stem cell research and how people believe it should be outlawed because undeveloped babies are embryos and this would be killing them. Joey's writing on both sides of the argument is well done and states both very well and makes me realize that both sides are good arguments. Joey's sources from the internet on stem cell research seem to be valid sources that give a lot of information on the subject and back up his points on stem cell research. His response to the first source is well done after reading the article. He talks about how people make it out to be terrible because undeveloped human embryos must die in order to take out the cells. He also includes a source that involves the other side of the argument and talks about how people should research stem cell because it can save many lives from terrible diseases such as parkinson's and cancer. After reading the article I agree with joey stating that the second article is a more compelling argument.
