Bone Marrow Cells Repair Heart

Science Daily is reporting that Toronto researchers have discovered a method to utilize bone marrow cells in the repair of a damaged heart after a heart attack. From the article: "While it has long been known that bone marrow cells have the ability to clear the dead tissue after a heart attack, what has not been known until now is the critically important role of bone marrow adult stem cells in repairing a damaged heart, restoring its function and enhancing the growth of new blood vessels."

If you choose not to accept treatment (for whatever reasons) and die of the illness, you have made the population smarter and stronger by removing your defective genes from the gene-pool. Darwin had something to say about this, but religious fanatics (which includes the American government) don't like this and either ignore or try to ban this line of thinking. Fortunately, as the fanatics slowly die because of their ignorance, the theory of evolution will eventually prove itself true even to these people.
