SCI-FI HEADLINES: 1st Artificially-Grown Organ Transplant!

GET THE STORY.

Author: Jimmy Akin

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

  1. This uses adult step cells (no human embryos harmed).
    With possibly one exception, all current stem-cell therapies use adult stem cells or near-embryonic placental cells from the umbilical cord – which are not derived from destroying human embryos.
    Something most of the media willfully ignore.

  2. I’m happy about this. I really am. But the picture at the top of that article? cree-py!
    The comment thread for the aricle is a pointed reminder of why, outside of very limited circles, I can’t stand blog comment threads. It was mostly just people insulting each other.

  5. Thank God for this modern technology. All while using our own stem cells! How wonderful is that! God is good, indeed!

  6. OKAY, ROLF IS DONE. REPEATED RULE 1 VIOLATIONS. ONE-LINE DIGS REGARDING THE BLOG HOST’S APPEARANCE DO NOT COUNT AS POSITIVE CONTRIBUTIONS TO A RATIONAL DISCUSSION.
