Stem Cell Research Advancements and Atheists


This is awesome and also a perfect example of why atheists care about the beliefs of religious people.
 "In only the second operation of its kind, a Baltimore man has received an artificial windpipe made from stem cells to replace one destroyed by cancer.
Christopher Lyles, 30, had tracheal cancer that had progressed so far it was considered inoperable, the New York Times reported. In November, doctors made him a new windpipe - or trachea - made out of tiny plastic fibers seeded with stem cells from his own bone marrow.

Two months after his successful operation, Lyles arrived home in Md. last week."

Cancer patient receives stem cell-made windpipe, first in U.S.
