If I'm honest, we would be a lot more scientifically advanced if religion did not exist.

They have stopped quite a lot of stem cell research.

Fair point but without ethics I dread to think what could of been it's a bit of a double edged sword

No that's not what I'm trying to say, forgive the confusion but I do think religious people are more aware of what's going too far if you get what I mean

Not trying to cause an argument it's just my opinion, I'm not religious myself and if someone else is then that's fine by me

Not at all, and I am sure i'm causing controversy, but why let something go to waste when it can save lots of life's? I know it is not the brightest subject, but stem cells can save A LOT of lives, we just need to do more research.

No, what I was trying to point out that most religions discriminate and sometimes kill gays.
Sorry for the confusion.
