I posted a disagreement with your POV, and you saw it as "belittlement"?

ATHEIST??? I don't agree with you about stem cells and now I'm an ATHEIST???

Good lord!

You have no IDEA what I believe in the realm of religion, Vicky! You've never talked to me. You've never asked me a question. You don't have a clue what I believe about God.

I will continue to be an advocate for finding a cure for this disease. And you know what? In 2009 there will likely be a Democrat in the White House. There will likely still be Democrat majorities in both houses. Stem Cell research will EVENTUALLY get funded to an appropriate level. Poll after poll shows it's what the American people WANT!

And when and if the happy day comes that a CURE is found through stem cell research...

I will support you 100 percent if you decide to partake of it.

I said it before, and I'll say it again. You have the right to believe WHATEVER you want to believe. One can be Christian and believe in stem cell research. ME, for instance. You have the right to whatever treatment for your disease that you choose. But you do NOT have the right to stand in the way of MY getting the treatment I would choose... or keeping that treatment from being developed.
