I'm not a religious nut or anything, but I wasn't sure about using embryos for that kind of research and eventually therapy. I mean, I know the ones being used now are already discarded and heck, at least their being used for something. But I could see how it could cause problems and invite bad decisions down the road by some people and cultures perhaps. At least this way, all that moral grey issue is gone, no matter which side of the fence you are on.
This is a GREAT breakthrough for medicine, very exciting!
