Decline to Sign Petition to
Change Michigan’s Constitution
Research
which Kills Human Embryos Not Needed in Michigan
Have you ever regretted doing something
after-the-fact because you didn’t have all the information at the time?
Most people can relate to that type of experience. Some people in
Michigan may have a common tale to tell, a tale which includes
statements such as, “I wish I would have known.”
We have heard reports from college campuses, Detroit Tigers games,
libraries, post offices, farmers’ markets and court houses of people
circulating petitions to have Michigan's Constitution changed. The
proposed change would allow the killing of human embryos in Michigan
for stem cell research.
The vast majority of people in Michigan want to see cures and
treatments for friends and loved ones who suffer from a disease or
injury. So does Right to Life of Michigan. Cures are being promised by paid petition
circulators: cures for cancer, cures for people with spinal cord
injuries, cures to diabetes. Much is being pledged if Michigan’s
Constitution is changed. Unfortunately, what’s being peddled to get
people to sign the petition are lies.
Will cures come from human
embryonic stem cells if we allow our constitution to be changed in
Michigan? The simple answer is “No.” To date, not one human being has
been treated with human embryonic stem cells. Those who are suffering
with a debilitating ailment cannot even participate in a trial with
human embryonic stem cells – there are too many dangers, the risks
outweigh the unknown, questionable benefits.
Stem cell research using adult
stem cells is taking place in Michigan with positive treatment
results. The constitution in Michigan should not be changed to allow
for the killing of human embryos for research. Please decline to sign
the petition being circulated, and pass this information on to your
friends and family members. Let’s live without regrets.
