First the media started leaning in favor of stem cell research. Now the biologists are starting to promote it themselves. It turns out that such information has had a real impact on public opinion -- reportedly, 6 out of 10 Americans now support embryonic stem cell research.

Scientists are increasingly banding together in lobbying groups and forums to push their ideas on the public and on legislators. What's worse, these forums are populated by pro-biotech individuals. Why don't anti-biotech people enter these scientists' debates and organizations? What we are getting is a skewed, biased view of the isues where opposing views are marginalized.
 
Well mostly because the majority in this case has a really good argument, while the opposition doesn't.
 
Welcome reggie5,
Biotech is a large umbrella. I approve of stem-cell research. I loathe genetically modified food. The was the US litteraly crams it down our unknowing throat is EVIL.
