I'm no religious man, but if god created excess stem cells like in the umbilical cord, then doesn't that seem like he intended for humans to put them to good use? I seriously don't get why some people view it as "unnatural."
You're missing the point here; there aren't enough stem cells coming from umbilical cords for research. Scientists want to research on unused IVF embryos (which have been frozen not long after fertilisation) which would otherwise be destroyed.
