Well, I'm as agnostic as the day is long and couldn't care less about the religious aspects of this debate. I'm just insulted by the mischaracterization of the whole thing, when people say so and so is against stem cell research. People who oppose spending fed. tax dollars on embryonic stem cell research because it has shown zero promise so far, when adult stem cell research has yielded plenty of tangible results, are often called "anti-stem cell research" or religious zealots. That's not true and it just further pushes me into the camp of those who don't want tax dollars spent on politicizing science and medical issues. FWIW, there are plenty of other fed. spending programs I have problems with too. And my positions on those are also not based on religious grounds.
