Quote:No person or entity shall manufacture or knowingly sell food or any other product intended for human consumption which contains aborted human fetuses in the ingredients or which used aborted human fetuses in the research or development of any of the ingredients.

Quote:The senator says that his research shows there are companies in the food industry that have used human stem cells to help them research and develop products, including artificial flavorings.

"I don't know if it is happening in Oklahoma, it may be, it may not be. What I am saying is that if it does happen then we are not going to allow it to manufacture here," Shortey tells KRMG's Nicole Burgin.

"I don't know what's going on, but I'll make up a story anyway because it's a great excuse to ban ALL use of stem cells!!!!"


Btw, here's the linked article from NPR talking about the claims:

Quote:So what exactly is HEK293? It's a cell line that started in the 1970s from human embryonic kidney cells. The line was cultured by scientist Alex Van der Eb in the early 1970s at his lab at the University of Leiden, Holland. Since then, the cell line has been cultured and grown in laboratories (you can buy some here). It's primary use is as a protein or a protein vessel -- sort of a natural test tube. It's also pretty common and seems to be available at most laboratory supply companies and used by many R&D facilities. In short, maybe not such a big deal.

So what does all of this mean? Is this "action alert" yet another rant by the right wing to draw attention to itself and delay scientific progress? In my opinion, yes. Children of God for Life has also issued news releases warning parents that childhood vaccines are made with aborted fetus cells. The cells they're talking about have "technically" originated from aborted fetus cells, but it's not like scientists are putting fetus body parts into blenders while laughing. Think of the fetus cells as sort of "ancient ancestors" to the new cells that are readily used today as "building blocks" and receptors in many commonplace scientific experiments in universities, hospitals, and commercial labs.

Always knew we atheists had baby eating right.

Seems like baby eating is stretching out to more than just the atheists...I dont blame them

What a surprise....there are crazy motherfuckers in Oklahoma. Oh, wait. That's not a surprise.

One of my Jew boys wants to know how matzos is ever going to get made in OK now. This is going to put such a crimp into Passover.

Wait till this redneck shitkicker hears that there are "Jews" in Oklahoma, Darlin'. Hell be rounding up a lynch mob to get the "christ killers!"

Fucking Oklahoma. Always passing legislation to solve nonexistent problems, just like they did with banning sharia law.

I would never eat any food containing ingredients made from aborted fetuses. There is no way you can be certain the fetus was clean. It could have been a christian fetus.

I think this jackass caught a rerun of Soylent Green.

Stem cells give me regenerative powers! Mmmm and they are tasty!
