>The front page article on Pro-Life Blogs displays the confusion the MSM has about stem cells, their origins, and what they actually are. The original article describes the method for obtaining the stem cells and describes them as “fetal.” But in several of the MSM articles referenced, the cells are clearly called “adult.” (see my … Continue reading
The report can be downloaded at the CDC website.. The data tables, rather than the “highlights” are far down on the 56 page document. The numbers for teens are skewed by lumping 18 and 19 year olds in with teens 15 to 17 years old. However, the numbers for the younger ages are disturbing, with … Continue reading
