If these cells can turn into cells of various body parts: such as muscle, neural tissues and cartilage I think that stem cell research would be a good idea.
I haven't done much research on this but what exacly is the problem with stem cell research? I'm just curious because it sounds like it would be a good idea. Maybe I'm wrong though.
Stem cell research shouldn't be a problem because the embryos used would be destroyed anyway and why not make their short existence useful and meaningful in some way instead of simply discarding them as they would be anyway.
