Writer's Block: Big Debates
No research leads to anything purely good, bad or dangerous. The same expertise that landed rockets in British population centers during the Second World War led to manned exploration of the moon.

As something which has the potential to improve the quality of life of Americans generally, stem cell research should be funded.
