Abstract
I am often asked “Why is there so much confusion about stem cells?” The truth is that this is a complex field, which extends well beyond science and the art of healing. It includes matters of an ethical, religious and emotional nature for which there is often no clear answer. In some cases one has to accept that it is impossible to obtain a consensus, and the best we can do is agree to disagree. I will try to explain.
