Religion too often makes life hell

"Our president continues to veto federal funding for stem cell research on embryos that would otherwise be discarded as medical waste -- using the argument of personhood for a few cells in a petri dish. He denies living humans with serious illnesses the chance for a cure through the use of this medical waste. Is that what God intended?
I take this personally because I am a multi-cancer survivor who might benefit from the availability of this research. But those cells in a petri dish appear to be more important than living citizens who need help."
