Why kill Mini Me when you can use umbilical cord blood, rich in stem cells, as artificial aint worked, right?? Nature's Miracle Substance: Umbilical Cord Blood Aimee Herd - John Mckenzie, Lenny Bourin – ABC News - (Jul 12, 2008) It does not involve the killing of human embryos, and it has been used to treat over 60 diseases, including Leukemia, Sickle Cell Anemia and blood cancers. Umbilical cord blood contains wonder-working stem cells. But all too often this "miracle substance" is simply disposed of. According to Dr. Elizabeth Shpall, head of the M.D. Anderson Cord Blood Bank, it is still a "vast majority" of women who do not realize what they are allowing to be thrown away when they don't allocate their newborn's umbilical cord blood to be donated. Yet, this wonderfully stem-cell-rich substance has been used to successfully treat so many diseases Many pregnant women are simply not aware of the medical value and the opportunity for treatments that can come from donating the cord blood when their baby is born. The fact is, umbilical cord blood is the perfect supply of stem cells OK? Cabbage Atheist brainwashing has produced generations of mad scientists who prostitute their skills to the highest bidder - callously churning out bigger & worse nukes & biochem weapons designed not for a 'clean kill', but to torture & mutillate In the WorldWideWeb, the driving forces are the 'industries' of gambling & porno: scientists devote their lives to inventing brainwashing techniques to enslave people Real questions here? How many scientist seriously believe that they are wiser than God & can deceive Him & oppress the weak with impunity? Anyone out there starting to realise that the whole world together is neither smart enough to fool the Almighty Creator, norstrong enough - even with all da WMDs - to defeat Him? Anyone beginning to learn that the acid test that proves said hypothesis is Armageddon - as @ Joel 3, Zechariah 14 & Revelation 16-19? http://BibleGateway.com Yes, those are REAL questions!! Yes, I wanna make y'all think!!! & ya answers???? Nap Do I see a strange glow reflected on ya face? Oh, behave! Wonder how many are truly awesome academics today - like foremost Oxbridge dons, those great pals CS Lewis & JRR Tolkien - whose wonderful works, (the Narnia Chronicles series & Lord Of The Rings series, respectively), I shamelessly commended in my last 5-minutes radio interview @ 7.50/55am on Sunday 6/7 @ http://bbc.co.uk/liverpool & plugged BBC 7-days iPlayer several times in the following week @ Y/A? As I said - direct to one current Oxford Professor Richard (Dork) Dawkins, in that interview, have you never stopped to ask why those TOP academics of the 30s had such firm, vibrant faith in God that they painstakingly created such works to inspire even young children? Readers, do you not know that even Dork Dawkins defined biology as "the study of species that give every apearance of having been designed for a purpose"? Why does he not see that's cuz they WERE? have actually taken time to check out How many readers know that evo-loopy Prof Richard (Loopy) Lewontin actually admitted, "It's not that the evidence compels us: we simply can't allow a Divine foot in the door" What makes ya think ya smart enuff 2 fool the Almighty Creator?? What makes ya think ya strong enuff 2 defeat the Almighty Creator in war?? Time to print some of the challenging questions questions @ Job 38-42 & 1 Corithians 1:18-31, eh? How many academics, already bored in such a cold, wet, windy summer, will now have the good sense to see the many FREE learned articles, mags, e-books, CDs, DVDs & MP3s @ http://www.discovery.org/csc http://www.creationism.org http://www.creationontheweb.org http://www.AnswersInGenesis.org & see the daily AiG specials - by such luminaries as witty Scouse geology Prof Dr Monty White & awesome Aussie wit Dr Ken Ham @ Video on Demand @:- http://www.RevelationTV.com http://www.GenesisTV.TV Christ the Wisdom and Power of God 18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."[a] 20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. 22 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24 but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength I'm by no means surprised that the best reply so far is from a pregnant lady Matt 24 has often been called a one-chapter summary of endtime Bible prophecy Jeus' friends asked, straight out, what signs would show both the end of the world & the return of Christ - as King of kings & Lord of lords A one-word summary of the reply is best explained to male ignoramuses by women who know the meaning of that one word Birthpains All kinds of disasters comig more & more frequent, stronger & stronger - serving to bring on The Great Delivery That, Aslan pictures in the gorgeous Prince Caspian movie, that I reviewed for award-winner Wayne Clarke's "Daybreak" show 2 weeks ago It starts in @ 57 mins @ http://bbc.co.uk/liverpool Zechariah 14 12 This is the plague with which the LORD will strike all the nations that fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouths.

And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes a man. 6During those days men will seek death, but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them. 7The locusts looked like horses prepared for battle.

I heard their number. 17 The horses and riders I saw in my vision looked like this: Their breastplates were fiery red, dark blue, and yellow as sulfur.

Why bank your babies blood cord? I am pregnant with my first baby, and in magazines I read a lot of advertisements on banking your child's umbilical cord. Could someone explain the purpose of this. Is this to help in regards to stem cell research? What would be the plus side to donating? Why would some people decide not to do this? I just have no idea, what the purpose is and would like to make an informed decision. Some of your answers stated that it is costly to bank the blood rather then donate? Although money is no issue when it comes to my babies health, how much does it cost to bank it?

Can Indian Muslims sing "Vande Mataram" as an opportunity to cut their umbilical cord with the Islamists? The root cause of all the evils is the pseudo secular democracy designed and implanted by Nehru which was further carefully nurtured and groomed by his dynasty.The Muslim cronies handpicked and deployed as Muslim leaders had the secret pact with this dynasty in return for a major share in waqf properties and Muslim endowments.These are the guys who introduced alien concepts like Shariah,Talaq,Polygamy,Jihad,Kafir,Fatwa, Tableeque Jamat and Madrassa education to alienate the Indian Muslims from their Hindu brothers and laid the foundation for vote bank and Muslim appeasement politics of the dynasty. Indian Muslims should capture "Vande Mataram" as a golden opprtunity and in fact they can celebrate this singing ceremony for one year as a powerful launching pad for Indian Muslim nationalism.This way they can cut their umbilical cord with the Islamists and can win the heart and minds of their 900 million Hindu brothers also. VANDE MATARAM. By an Indian Muslim.

Stem Cell Research...Would you agree? I am all for Umbilical Cord Stem Cell research, not embryonic stem cell research. I hate the debates right now in Congress about the morality of stem cell research! Creating a national stem cell blood bank (umbilical cord blood) just like the regular blood bank would save lives. Umbilical stem cells do not take life away, it aides in saving lives. What doesn't the government get? Your opion?

Positive for Hepatitis B core antibody. Negative for Suface Antigen. False Positive? We had our baby 3 weeks ago and we decided to do the ViaCord cord blood banking. After delivery they took several vials of blood from my wife and the umbilical cord for the banking / testing. About 2 weeks after we got a notice saying that they needed more blood as there wasn't enough to complete all the tests. One of the tests being Hepatitis B Virus Core Antigen and Hepatitis B Surface Antigen. Amoungst other things. We recieved a letter today from ViaCord saying that her blood tested positivly for Hepatits B Core Antibody but Negatively for Hepatitis B Surface Antigen. They continued to saw that the combination of resuls may mean you have been exposed to hepatits B some time in the past or there is a possiblility the test result showed a false positive. Then says the surface antigen test being negative is a better indication that you're not infected. Needless to say my wife is freaking out that she gave it to the baby. Anyone else have similiar experiences? Just to add, we both had the vaccinations as children and my wife was negative for the test prescreening for the pregnancy. We unfortunately didn't get the vaccination at the hospital for our son and was going to wait for the peditrician to give it to him at 1 month.

Another question.? I'm thinking about banking my baby's umbilical cord blood stem cells. I've read where using them can cure osteoporosis. I don't know. I signed up at baby zone after I was pregnant and the sent me E-mails on it. Has anyone else done this? My husband's sister had Hurler's, we both have diabetic's in our family. (our Mom's are both "border line" diabetic's) I have osteoporosis. No family history of it, just me, Also osteoarthritis. I'm already increasing my 8 year old daughter's calcium by drinking more milk a day. Of course she loves milk.

Stem Cell Research? http://www.yahoo.com/s/598311 I think this is great! I do not agree with using embryos for this, but if they can use skin cells to the same effect, wouldn't you donate? On the same subject, I am interested in donating (not storing) my umbilical cord to a blood bank for the whole stem cell thing... but I am overseas and the military doc I have says I have to get the kit myself. Does anyone know how to get this kit? I stuck it here because Politics seems to get more answers than medical, and stem cells seem to be a very politically hot issue whenever they're brought up. One other slight snag... I'll be giving birth in Japan... and the places I've found online all want face to face interviews. All this hassle just to help... oh well... its worth it...

Does anyone else find the process of stem cell research to be a little shady? I will admit to being ignorant of the in and outs of this research. First, aren't stem cells present in the umbilical cord? When I was pregnant, all sorts of info about banking the babies cord blood, due to the versatility of stem cells, seemed to say that they were. So, if these wonderful cells are present in umbilical cords, that we routinely throw away, why do we need recently fertilized eggs? Second, what could the possible benefit of having .1% of the dna in that egg be animal? (They are passing laws about this in Britian right now). How could studing something that would never occur in nature help the medical community? When has a disease ever occured where a doctor said "If only we had seen how animal dna effected stem cells, all the answers needed would be known." "If only we had a human-animal hybrid to illuminate this situation!!!" "I am sorry sir, in order for this us to be able to treat you we need to know the effect of the disease on an embryo with .1% animal dna"
