President Obama is going to lift the ban on embryonic stem cell research next week. Hooray!
Considering the millions of people who stand to benefit from the resulting research, it is the moral thing to do and long overdue. Millions of human beings living with terrible diseases deserve more consideration than tiny clumps of cells without a nervous system or a brain which are NEVER going to be a human anyway.
I imagine Transhumanists will be especially gladdened by this news.

Ahem... assuming that was aimed at me, yes as a matter of fact I am very pleased with that decision.
As I expected you would be. :-)
