Hi there
New here, but I have a problem. I've heard quite a bit about this stem cell research that can make hair cells and cure deafness. I am so afraid. I don't want Deaf culture to die. Stupid scientists.
Anyway, what do you think about this stuff?
Don't worry, it will not happen for two reasons:
1) Incompetent Bush does not support the stem cell research at all (even though in California, stem research bill passed) and
2) historically, there is no cure for deafness, blindness, etc. Err, actually there is a third reason:
3) They are looking for wrong solution to solve the deafness. Nothing new about that. That's where Sweden, Denmark and Holland start to realize that they are looking for wrong solutions to solve the cancer and others.. they are shifting their goals recently, we will see the miracle cures from them soon or later.

We humans are ment to hear. Only animals like fish are not ment to hear. And Bats are not ment to see. I want stem cell reserach to cure hearing and other dieases like diebetes C-F and other things. I want regrow hair cells for my hearing. I think its a choice no one is making you to hear but PEOPLE WILL JUDGE YOU BECAUSE YOUR DEAF! Its just the way our society is. But ill be damned if i pay my taxes for you to bum around collecting free money while i work in sweat my ass off 8 hours a day. Why should i pay if employers refuse to hire you because your deaf? Im fighting to get my hearing back so i can go back to work and earn money.
If humans are ment to hear, why then does God create the deafness? Why not He remove the 'loopholes' when he created us? In other words, there is a reason for deafness, it is all about acceptance. If you want to define your life based on other people who judged you because of your deafness, I pity you. I truly do.
Flash news: No matter what you are or who you are, people
WILL judge you. Period. I hope you realize that there are several deafies who became millionaries, are you saying that deafies are the doomed race? ppfftt. I am more pissed off that I and my generations will work their ass off to pay Bush's reckless economy policy. I don't mind to pay the Social Security, I
helped other unfortunate people and elders. It is only small tax, it is no big deal. It never did. Anyway let's not bring the specific politic into this topic.
About diseases like diabetes or cancer, there is ALREADY 'cure' for these... I will say again, these idiots are looking for wrong solution to solve these problems. That's all.
