I was breezing through an article the other day about stem cell research. Now, I do not know very much about it and I guess I should know more before saying anything but here goes.

I am not really on the side of abortion as a method of birth control. For certain instances I think it might be necessary.
My question is this: Do you support stem cell research even though you might be pro-life? I believe that if they are going to perform abortions anyway, shouldn't someone at least benefit from that?

Notice that I took the middle ground and did not use loaded words. I realize that you can't debate this issue without abortion coming into it, but this is not a question of pro-choice or pro-life, it is about if it is going to happen, should it be allowed in medical research.
