I have this one message, and it's bipartisan and it's nonpartisan and it's just about hope. This is about giving hope a chance. -Michael J. Fox, November 2006 |
| The subject of stem cell research has become a topic of great debate in our country. It has become an issue in election campaigns and political advertisements. People argue over the merits of adult stem cell research versus embryonic stem cell research. Religious and ethical arguments have been made both for and against this type of medical research. Yet the decisions that we as a society make about whether and how to pursue stem cell research will have profound consequences, not only for the millions of Americans and their loved ones who struggle every day with debilitating diseases and chronic disabilities, but also for the way in which future medical advances are scrutinized and funded. |
| Wisconsin Stem Cell Now, Inc. was founded in December 2004 in order to educate the public about the science and ethics of all forms of stem cell research, including embryonic stem cell research. Public debate over the limits of science is healthy. However, this debate must take place on the basis of a correct understanding of what stem cell research entails, how the human reproduction system works, and what leading theologians and ethicists believe are the appropriate boundaries of medical research. It would be a tragedy if we foreclosed any avenue of medical research on the basis of misinformation or ignorance - a tragedy for all of those whose hope for an eventual cure would be dashed. |
| The mission of Wisconsin Stem Cell Now is more important now than ever. By speaking to church and civic groups, we explain the science behind the headlines. By doing mass media interviews, we debunk the scare tactics and misinformation being used to frighten the public. Finally, by meeting with legislators and other elected officials, we ensure that policy makers have all of the information that they need when they make decisions that affect so many lives. |
