"The Illinois Family Institute (IFI) absolutely supports adult and umbilical cord stem cell research. We oppose, however, embryonic stem cell research because it destroys human life. Moreover, IFI believes that in this economic climate, it is foolish to spend tax dollars for controversial and unproven research."Every human life begins as an embryo. Each embryo has unique human DNA. It is the first stage of human development. This fact should not be overlooked in favor of any potential scientific advancement. Potential human life should never be sacrificed in the name of a potential medical cure.
I wear many hats...joint heirs with Christ, wife to Jim, mother to Hannah and Johnson are at the top of my wardrobe. I retired after working 33 years for a grocery chain. I worked as our church secretary for a couple of years. I help with Awana Club, Ladies Missionary Fellowship, Vacation Bible School, Mission Trips, volunteer as needed at our church, and the local retirement home. The list goes on...just like you...I keep busy!

Obama lifts ban on embryonic stem cell research
I feel sad at President's Obama's announcement today. I agree with the Illinois Family Institute which issued this statement in response:
