to the public debate on embryonic stem cell research are as follows: First, religious communities should keep in mind and remind others of the larger or more expansive public context in which this debate over embryonic stem cell research is

asexual creation of a human embryo . We suddenly find ourselves in the middle of the abortion debate. By beginning with hES cells, scientists think this debate could be avoided. However, the use of hES cells does not avoid the embryo problem

to attribute the status of embryo to totipotent stem cells and deny it to pluripotent stem cells? Even if we are successful at removing pluripotent stem cells from the category of embryos--and, thereby, exempting them from legal restrictions on

Human Embryonic Stem Cells The study of human stem cells has barely begun and what is known is summarized in this section. The vast majority of experimental data discussed here are the results of experiments in mice. ES cells from

each cell in our body as an embryo ? Would this mean that, in principle, we could make a baby from any cell in our body? Here is what we need: 1. The full genetic code to make every tissue available in every somatic cell; 2.

All cells within the early embryo are totipotent up until the 16 cell stage or so. Next are the pluripotent stem cells which can develop into any of the three major tissue types: endoderm (interior gut lining), mesoderm (muscle, bone,
