Stem-Cell research breakthrough

Note the part about how it may now be possible to create stem cells without the controversial means of destroying fertilized human embryos.
Can frame this as a rebuttal to the point on the ethical implications of stem-cell research where fertilized human embryos are often destroyed in the process of extracting the stem cells, making the whole process tantamount to murder. Argue that problems caused by the limitations of technology often require technology itself to resolve them. As a Chinese saying goes, 'to untie the bell, you still need to rely on the person who initially tied the bell there in the first place'.

Sample Qn:
'Technology alone can save us.' Do you agree?
