Adult Stem Cell Success--In the Flesh!

In June, much of the media coverage focused on President Bush's veto of the Senate bill that would have required taxpayer funds for experimentation that destroys human embryos. What the President has accomplished on the issue since then is equally newsworthy. To encourage true research and progress, President Bush issued an Executive Order directing HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt to support projects that pursue "alternatives" to embryonic stem cells. Yesterday, the National Institute of Health (NIH) released its plan called, "Expanding Approved Stem Cell Lines in Ethically Responsible Ways." Considering the latest success stories for adult stem cells, NIH should have no shortage of projects to pursue. At the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, scientists have succeeded in "reprogramming" stem cells from mice testes into a host of tissue types. If the same results occur in humans, these adult stem cells could soon treat everything from brain disorders to heart disease. In Boston, medical researchers have been able to extract adult bone marrow cells and coax them to grow into tissue that can help replace dysfunctional heart valves. As scientist John Mayer emphasized, "These are stem cells derived from bone marrow, [but] they are not embryonic stem cells." At Wake Forest University, researchers have used adult stem cells to "grow" a functioning human bladder. As for the triumphs of embryonic stem cells... well, we're still waiting--but patients don't need to wait with adult stem cells.

N.J. Supreme Court Abides by Hypocritic Oath

Doctors in the state of New Jersey are under no obligation to tell their patients the truth about their unborn children, according to yesterday's unanimous ruling by the state Supreme Court. In the 5-0 decision, justices said the court, "will not place a duty on doctors when there is no consensus in the medical community or among the public" on when life begins. The suit was filed in response to a botched abortion suffered by a New Jersey woman at the hands of a physician who misled her about the personhood of her unborn child. According to her testimony, when Dr. Sheldon Turkish advised her to have an abortion, she asked whether the "baby was already there." Turkish allegedly replied, "Don't be stupid, it's only blood." Seven weeks after the abortion, the women went to the hospital for excessive bleeding. Contrary to what Turkish told her, the physicians discovered that "parts of the baby" were still inside her. She sued Turkish for failing to provide her with accurate medical information before she consented to the abortion. In its final opinion, the court wrote, "On the profound issue of when life begins, this court cannot drive public policy in one particular direction by the engine of common law when the opposing side, which represent so many of our citizens are arrayed along a deep societal and philosophical divide." Interestingly enough, this same court didn't seem to mind "[driving] public policy in one particular direction" during the state's marriage debate last fall. In Lewis v. Harris, the justices did more than drive public policy on marriage--they rewrote it! In true dictatorial fashion, the court ordered the state's legislators to abandon democracy and grant homosexual couples the same rights as married spouses. One might ask where that same concern for the state's "deep societal and philosophical divide" was last October? Obviously, New Jersey's high court reserves its restraint for cases that aid the liberal cause.

TheCall Las Vegas - The Nazarite Uprising

“America is receiving Her apostles, prophets, and evangelists, but She has not yet seen Her Nazarites!” This audible voice from the Lord reverberated through my whole being, jarring me out of a deep sleep into a wakened attentiveness to the Holy Spirit. I knew

that the Lord had spoken to me.

In fact, God’s answer had come quickly to my heart’s searching the night before when my 13-year old son had asked permission with determined insistence to ...

There are moments in history when a door for massive change opens, and great revolutions for good or evil spring up in the vacuum created by these openings. In these historic moments key men and women and even entire generations risk everything to become the hinge of history, the pivotal point that determines which way the door will swing.

Your hard-earned tax dollars help fund Planned Parenthood!

You are not going to believe this, but it is TRUE:

According to recent reports, Planned Parenthood performs almost 250,000 abortion procedures a year.

AND YOUR TAX MONEY IS HELPING TO FUND THEIR AGENDA.

Shocked? Outraged? You should be!

Give an online gift NOW to help the ACLJ STOP the misuse of your hard-earned dollars in funding Planned Parenthood.

Call to Prayer over Disturbing New Method of Research: Mixing Humans, Animals, Creating Hybrid Embryos to Destroy

"...creating embryos purely for the purpose of research turns the embryo into nothing more than a research tool, and a source of raw biological material for experiments." –Dr. David King, Human Genetics Alert

News Staff/AH (September 5, 2007)

EDITOR'S NOTE: As the norm, we try to find positive reports and stories to post on Breaking Christian News, however, at times there will be prayer alerts that seem too important NOT to run. The sickening story below is one of those. One can only imagine the depravity that could arise as this research is given license, not to mention the disease and destruction that could be introduced into human genetics—even accidentally. And so we issue a call-to-prayer that this decision would be reversed so hybrid embryos would not be allowed or toyed-with in the UK, or anywhere. –Aimee Herd, BCN.

(United Kingdom)—If it was the premise of a horror movie, I wouldn't go see it. But, as surreal as this might seem, this disturbing method of research has been approved by the UK's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA). (Photo: BBC News)

According to an article from This Is London, Labour ministers recently changed their minds about outlawing human hybrid research, giving scientists who are licensed by the HFEA a green light to conduct disease-related experiments with embryos that are part human, part animal.

Those scientists wanting to conduct such research cited a shortage of human eggs used for experimentation, as the reason for the hybrid creations.

Dr Stephen Minger, of King's College, said, "I can understand why people are freaked out by this, but the embryos will never be implanted and the cells won't be used for therapy—this is about studying the development of diseases in a Petri dish."

However, Dr. David King, with Human Genetics Alert (a research watchdog group) noted, "We are not a pro-life group but creating embryos purely for the purpose of research turns the embryo into nothing more than a research tool, and a source of raw biological material for experiments."

40 DAYS FOR LIFE

A new campaign sweeping through U.S. cities is hoping to remind Americans that the most effective weapon in the fight against abortion is prayer.
As part of a 40 Days for Life initiative, more than 20 cities have signed up to participate in 24-hour prayer vigils outside their local abortion center. From September 26 to November 4, thousands of volunteers will spend over 960 hours interceding on behalf of children in the womb and their mothers and fathers. The model is based on the biblical 40-day periods in which God worked miracles through Noah, Moses, David, Elijah, and Jesus. Organizers have already experienced similar wonders in cities that conducted their own vigils earlier this year. As a testament to the event's impact, seven cities are reporting results that range from a 28 percent reduction in abortion to recruitment of over 1,000 pro-life volunteers. In Dallas, 14 women reconsidered their abortions, and neighboring Houston noted that area pregnancy care centers had over 120 appointments from moms who didn't follow through on their scheduled abortions. To take part in this life-changing movement, log on to www.40daysforlife.com and witness the kind of difference your community can make on this important debate.

Former Abortionist Repents During Nashville's "The Call"

"God, I repent. I repent for myself and all abortionists all over..."

Elizabeth O'Brien/TN (August 11, 2007)

(Nashville)—LifeSiteNews reports that during the massive prayer rally of 07.07.07 that drew an estimated 100,000 primarily young people to Nashville this July, a former abortionist begged God for mercy and joined crowds in praying for a definitive end to the national crime of abortion.

During "The Call" rally, former Planned Parenthood abortionist Dr. Patti Gibbink reportedly stood up and testified, confessing her sins and begging God to end abortion. She told the crowds, "Ten years ago, I did abortions for Planned Parenthood." Here she paused, notes reporter Elizabeth O'Brien, overwhelmed with tears.

"God, I repent. I repent for myself and all abortionists all over. We have sacrificed innocent lives to the altars of Baal and Moloch. God, God...forgive me Lord, and other abortionists. God, hear our cry. Be merciful to us. Jesus, I plead Your blood over my sins and the sins of this nation."

Alabama Woman's Heart Rebuilt by Her Own Adult Stem Cells

"I told the doctor, 'I don't understand why we have this huge political mess going on about stem cells'...I'm living proof that adult stem cells work far better than embryonic. And why should embryonic even be in discussion?"

Jennifer Mesko/AH (July 31, 2007)

(Alabama)—When 58-year-old Carron Morrow, an event planner and mother-of-two from Alabama, suffered her 4th heart attack, she was told that the only way she would live was with a transplant. With 100,000 people waiting for a new heart, she began to think it would be the end of life for her.

But when Carron was given an opportunity to take part in a revolutionary new study using adult stem cells to repair hearts, she jumped on board, hoping that she would not be one of those to receive a placebo. (Photo: Citizen Link)
