Really, that's the root of it. It's not rational to be religious.

I should have qualified my earlier post - it's not that all religious people are irrational.

It's just that right-wing religious fundies are irrational.

You don't need to qualify your earlier post, it could've been safely assumed you were wrong and didn't mean what might have been read into your post to make it correct.

Religion is irrational, so all religious people are irrational.

If you'd like a formal proof of this, you can PM me and I can tell you to **** off in more creative ways.

I bet European companies will make loads of money off of discoveries which American scientists were forbidden to look into.

How were they forbidden to pursue this area of science?

I'm pretty sure Asher, being Canadian, already has plenty of kindling around his place.

You mean he burns books too? Is he a friend of Sarah Palin?

Generation of heat would put the Bible to better service of mankind than it has been so far.

You have no shame.

[Boris Godunov]

Shame is something religious people have to feel, because they're guilty about angering the invisible man up in the sky.

...trachea -- an airway essential for breathing...

Are there airways not essential for breathing?

...without the risk that her body would reject the transplant.

Isn't it possible that the body might not recognize the new tissue as "self" and reject it? It's just less likely compared to donor tissue.

If you define "airway" as any channel in the body air can flow through, yes. The Eustachian tube comes to mind...

And most importantly, a big **** you to stem cell opponents like (I presume) my good friend Ben "I don't care about your life or your rights" Kenobi.

If you actually read the article these are adult cells.

Adult stem cells are totally awesome.
