To his credit, he opposes the intentional creation of human embryos for experimentation, but if human embryos already exist and are not being “used”, he supports research on them.

Coming from a long line of farmers in my home county of Barbour, I have always had a soft spot in my heart for American farm families. I know first hand how tough life can be for farmers and their families. That’s why Senator John McCain’s recent comments opposing the Farm Bill were so disturbing. McCain came out in strong opposition to the bill, saying “I don’t support agricultural subsidies no matter where they are. The farm bill, $300 billion, is something America simply can’t a... more

I would like to ask that question to Senator Obama over his recent claim that Jesus justified same-sex unions in the Sermon on the Mount .
Unfortunately, from what I read of his statements he didn’t actually mention the specific chapter and verse that he was referring to, so we don’t actually know which words of Christ he uses to justify same-sex unions, but he did speak about the book of Romans:
