**//I STAND FOR…. // I STAND AGAINST STEM CELL RESEARCH. ** Killing a life that never had a chance for one that has? Is that really right? No! Stem cell research is pushing it too far. An encouragement for abortions, dismissing the other options that beautiful life form could have, and an excuse for murder? Is that really what you want to be looking for to benefit yourself? This earth needs to be informed of what is really behind “that cure”.

There has been great dispute over abortions, many strikes, and commotion against it. This is definitely pulling at tight strings by involving abortions in testings. It is encouraging what has been fought over ever since abortions were made possible and it’s only going to end in catastrophe. The opposing sides are going to slam hard repeatedly in the fight to persuade that the other is right, and there will be no end to it. The entire dispute will be based around the involvement of abortions in stem cell research, and it will not //ever // budge away.

Scientists can make embryonic stem cells from skin, but they can’t justify destroying human life. So they make an excuse, and what are they excusing? Murder. Criminals don’t get away with that, so why are they? We have no excuse, they have no reasonable excuse, so it shouldn’t be EXCUSED! There is good that comes out of this, curing the worst. But the truth is, trying to make good come out of bad, come out of forced death, there is no good in that**. Not the least bit. **

If your life was about to be ended, and you were told you had another option, you would snatch that option up before the world could speak another word. Now what if that option was ripped away from you, and you knew exactly what you were about to be giving up? You would never have that second chance, or that retry, you’d be done. Cut-off. Ended. But then there is that sweet baby, mindless of the future, perfect. And they are about to face the same thing. The difference is, they never had the chance that you did. Never made a made a wrong, nor a right. Never seen what is out there waiting for them. The same thing is ripped away from them, and they are oblivious to the wonderful they don’t get the choice of keeping. You had your start, your experience. And they didn’t? But you would still use them as your way out of death, because you fear what you are now making them face! Where is the good in that? Where is the great every scientist says will come out of this? Dismissing that baby’s other options is…. disgusting. The ones that are supposed to know it all, be the best, are playing along with one of the most appalling choices made.

Take a stand against Stem Cell Research. Fight for a life that never had the chance. Know that encouraging abortions, dismissing the better options, and excusing murder is //not // right and should not be skipped over. Stand tall and strong the next time someone tries to persuade you otherwise and speak loud and clear that you are against Stem Cell Research and what it hides, and you will do what is right to fix what is so extremely wrong.

Taking a stand,Jenn Knyff P.S. I was misinformed about this subject, so although this essay is piled around false information, I hoped that it still moved you away for a persuasive benefit. I apologize as well to Kevin and Jacob ( :P ) for all the emotional disaster me and Victoria caused. But looking back at that, I laugh at how dumb we made ourselves look. But hey, I'm stubborn so a round of applause to Kevin and Ms. Carlyle for taking me out of the box I was so fixed in and making me realize how much I was missing.

Wow! You are amazing! Jenn, your comments here speak to how much you have learned this year and I have the greatest respect for you for putting yourself 'out there'. I am very proud of you and I truly enjoyed your essay. Your passion and beliefs shone through and although your ideas are somewhat misguided, you have done an outstanding job and I value what you have said. You have included all the components of persuasion as well! I think everyone in this wiki team learned a lot about each other. I think your team members also learned a lot from you as well. Jacob and Kevin recognize that gender may have an effect on opinion as well and to take that into consideration when forming opinons and respecting others' views. Let me just tell you this, I want YOU on my team when it comes to making any decisons based upon the ethic of care and value for human life. I am proud of you. Ms C :)

THANKS!!!
