The thing about stem cell research is it's not like they're going out and deliberately aborting babies purely for research...I mean we have the aborted fetuses why not use them? I think using our resources to the fullest extent IS a very moral thing to do.

As far as increasing the scope, I don't really think science should be guided by strict morals as it's an amoral thing for the most part. I'd be against like...human testing (unless the subject was fully aware of what he was getting into and gave consent) and I'm not a fan of animal testing unless it was for something of a greater importance than a couple lab mouses lives.
