As if that first statement wasn't evidence enough of your lack of education. All your cells are human as opposed to being cells of a dog, or a cow but none of your cells, including your stem cells are "A human being" and no human cell may be more human than any other human cell just as no human being may be more human than any other human being.

Oops, you caught me off guard there again mulp. Really though, grab yourself a couple of books on cellular biology and developmental biology and lean something before you try to argue the science associated with this subject.
Even though the subject is probably way over your head, you might start with the difference between totipotent, pluripotent, and multipotent stem cells so that at the very least you won't go about thinking that there is any relation at all between cord blood and abortion. You might also take the time to learn exactly what is done with cord blood.
