  • @girlwhois16 along with many other illnesses but i don't know what they are. I'm not an expert on stem cell research. I just know it's important

    simple modifications

    Yeah, a Simple modification that requires planning and execution that would require at least 200 hundred years. For one, it doesn't have an atmosphere, then it's doesn't have a magnetic field and also, the temperature variation is too high. We can set up base stations on mars but we won't be able to make it into a habitual planet.

    K. I didn't but sure

    Why are you adamant about disagreeing with me? Just take a look and see if you have used the word "likely"?

    You made the statement. You have the burden of proof to say that they're likely

    and for the dystopian, I don't have to present a proof. It's been the way all these years. It's likely to happen again.

    Then again, these things are probable. Are you sure that they won't happen? I used to the word "What if" to illustrate such themes which shows that they are not confirmed to happen but do have a chance to happen.

    The population on mars won't be big enough for such a possibility anyways. Would it

    One, if the population is big enough then that means it is not a good option. Two, in case of a small number of people leaving the planet, who do you think is more likely to be allowed to survive. Intelligent people; bullshit.

    What is that supposed to mean. The only thing holding back things like stem cell research is religion. If genetic modification will be held back by superstition it will be religious superstition. In either case i don't know what anti-vaxxers have to do with this

    In case you didn't understand, I presented the "Anti-vaxxers" as a proof to show that people can oppose useful things without basing it on religion an why do you think that stem cell therapy is held back by religion? Do you have any proof to offer? I can't find anything to show that religion is a responsible for hold back stem cell research.

    Not true. It is a good place to survive if something bad happens on earth

    Two, in case of a small number of people leaving the planet, who do you think is more likely to be allowed to survive. Intelligent people; bullshit.

    @sir-devil i didn't even watch all those vids halfway through. But I'm sure they'll put you up to speed on stem cell research


  • @thestrangest

    It will take around 200-300 years

    That's just a speculation. It might take longer. Then again, 300 years is too long of a time. With the current direction the world is going on, it way too long. There's a lot of chance for many things to go wrong within that time period. I said that it would take more than 200 years but actually, it's just the time required to pump enough CO2 and other stuff to melt its polar ice caps. There's a chance that the artificial atmosphere won't hold up. Even if it holds up, there' nothing one can do about the missing magnetic field.

    Didn't i say " X will happen,.... Y will happen and L will happen ASLONG AS NOTHING HORRIBLY BAD HAPPENS before X date" like a hundred times

    No, you said that things I suggested are unlikely to happen which is in line with my statement.

    They're unlikely.

    500 years would not be much. If going interplanetary on a planet where we can comfortably stay takes 1000 years it would be good enough. My point is that aslong as we move some people to mars even if they can't live there comfortably then we won't go extinct if something bad happens on earth

    I said both. I actually said that atleast 2 times

    Example:

    WHAT is not confirmed to happen. In my 1st statement i only said "Definitely". We are definitely going to mars, curing aging, becoming able to do advanced genetic modification and what else did i say. As long as nothing horrible happens before the end of the 23rd century all of that will definitely happen

    leaving the possibility of a disaster open along with your statements of nuclear being unlikely. Then when you provided stats and whatever i said k a nuclear disaster isn't too unlikely

    They're unlikely.

    Now you are contradicting yourself.

    They oppose stem cell research but are they the major reason for underdevelopment in Stem Cell Research?

    YES

    You said that they are holding it back but how?

    Banning government funding in the US for like 10 years, having religious leaders like the pope being against embryonic stem cell research, and still having "religious activists" working against it . Watch the fucking vids I'm not an expert on this shit

    Are they actively preventing or disturbing the research?

    YES

    I said that I'm not able to find any source for it. I'm repeating your statement to yourself.

    The videos are notable sources from the first video being a neurologist and philosopher talking about the topic and the others coming from science shows. They all say that about religion. You should fucking watch them instead of asking questions already answered in them. All i know is that government funding was banned for like 10 years for religious motives starting from when G. Bush signed the ban to when Obama lifted it, that there are still protests against the research today, that muslim leaders are against the whole idea of stem cell research and that the pope is against embryonic stem cell research

    You made the statement. You have the burden of proof

    You are contradicting yourself again.

    NO. You do not pull the "burden of proof" card o justify your ignorance on a topic 8/10 adults know about. You are being obnoxious. The videos were generous enough. If you are too lazy to watch them? Good for you. You want text to read? Look for it yourself

    And you have completely missed my point. I said that it was a long time because before it is completed, many things could happen. Life wars or economic depression. After all, all our natural resources are about to be used up. It is more than enough a reason for a possible war. There are lot of reason that it won't be allowed to proceed easily.

    Okay. Since you didn't give another source or not care enough to research it (which is not good move during a debate), I found out an article published back then.

    https://www.nature.com/articles/21942

    If you read it, you would find that although the opposition was started by 100 anti-aborters, where a portion of them was basing it on religion, it was successful only because they had the support of many doctors. The supporters of that protest include the former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a former surgeon general, director of the Center for Clinical Bioethics at Georgetown University, Washington DC, and a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore.

    That protest was successful due to a lack of research and information.

    The statement was coordinated by the Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity in Bannockburn, Illinois. It was released at a press conference at which Senator Sam Brownback (Republican, Kansas) said that research on human embryonic stem cells is “immoral, illegal and unnecessary”.

    Young, who served as FDA commissioner under President Ronald Reagan, compared the development of cell and tissue therapies from embryonic stem cells to the making of saddles from human skins by Nazi Germans.

    John Gearhart, a professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, says it is unproven that stem cells from adult tissue can generate all the tissues of the body.

    The vids are plenty enough. I'm not gonna do research to explain to you something that is widely understood because i personally am not an expert on the topic but only have read critiques and condemnation in some books of how the religious have greatly harmed advancement in stem cell research. The ban on government funding by G. Bush is the thing that's cited the most as it was for purely religious reasons abd lasted around 10 years

    Btw out of the three examples, only the first one has actively responsible for the underdevelopment of the research (which I have shown that religion was not the primary reason for its success)

    No you ducking didn't.

    During G. Bush speach whilst banning government funding

    "The speech began with a description of stem cell research and the debate surrounding it. It pointed to ethical concerns pondered by scientists and by parents who want to help their children, or who want to have children; recognized widespread religious debate; and noted that there is disagreement even between people sharing the same faith. Bush described the current state of stem cell research by identifying the source of embryos preferred by scientists, namely excess embryos left over after couples attempt in vitro fertilization (IVF). Some of these extra embryos are frozen, he said, some implanted in mothers, and some donated to science for research."
