Propoganda at work
LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY gothic_oreo)
So, I found an article detailing the success of (adult) stem cell therapy in curing type I diabetes in a human trial
While the story is remarkable enough, what I find even more remarkable are those that immediately jumped onto the comments section to beat their ideological drums. The really sad part, is it reads like a talking points bulliten from the religious right, and a comment towards the end goes as far as to directly credit God with the medical breakthrough.
This is a classic example of the effects of propoganda on the populace. Say something enough, and it starts to self-propogate.
