i SEVERLY DISAGREE withe this, since cloning isn't perfect and if you clone a person/object too much times they copied material slowly deforms. And clones are really really unintelligent, so if we have 'mind tranferal technology' added with perfect cloning (100% accurate copied material) then i would agree but otherwise i do not...

Well, I am for cloning. I don't think that there will be copies of people running around the place, but I think that the
technology of cloning will go to making copies of stem cells and using them to regrow body parts. This happens
by making and growing an embryo and taking the stem cells out.

A lot of people are against this because getting the stem cells involves killing the embryo. Normally, the embryo
will be taken out of the "extras" in a fertility clinic and scientists will grow the embryo to get the stem cells. What
people don't realize is the embryo will be killed anyway in the fertility clinic. All scientists are doing is extracting
more use out of the embryos and improving a person's life.

But should scientists kill the embryo anyway? At what point does a cell become a human? I think that the embryo
counts a human, but should we kill it? We kill animals and plants, what difference would a cell make? When you
eat meat, you have ended the life of an animal. Why have you ended the life of that animal? Because you need
protein. Although there are other ways to get protein, you still take the meat. Saving somebody's life is more
important than protein from animals, I would think.

Although scientists are working on other ways to get stem cells without killing an embryo, the result would not
be as good as with an embryo.

I think that if humans can eat meat, we should be able to save lives with stem cells.


In essence, what you are trying to tell us is that scientists are trying to save one person's life by ending another. by not allowing the Embryos to grow into humans, what are you doing? isnt it kiiling all the same?

I have never been in support of cloning. It is unnatural, and unGodly. God created us so that we may fulfil our mission on earth, die and go back to meet our creator and not that we may live for an everlasting lenght of time. It has never made any sense to me why people should ever be cloned. If you loose someone, why go for the cloned part of that person? It will always be there in your mind that this isnt my real relation, child, father, mother, ect ect but something that was made to resemble, behave like and do thing like him/her.

So, as you can see, cloning simply does not make any good sense at all.

That is my own view of cloning.
