Blog #5 (quarter 3)

For this week's blog, I read an article on the NewYorkTimes.com called: "How India Reconciles Hindu Values and Biotech". This article talks about how Bush restricted funding for stem-cell research in 2001, but now, it's considered a smart idea to research stem-cell, and how it can open opportunities for the future. The Indian biotech companies are expanding their research companies, and this will create thousands of new jobs for people. The religious significance of this article is that people are critical and noting that these biotechnology companies are having no respect or consideration for religious or moral positions on the idea of stem-cell research.
