Cloning: Right or Wrong

i think cloning is wrong because ... people were made only once and its wrong to clone others or any kind of organism and to me it makes them look like a god or something!! also thanks for this info i need it for an essay!

erm not really true you say we are not just organs and stuff you say we have souls but a soul is not a substance a soul is not a thing its simply a process of every organ working together are soul it technically just aour persionality and you say an embryo is a human being with a soul when actually what you realise is that it is just a clkuster of cells and chromasomes

Cloning is murder, bringing another human being in to the world so it can be used as an experiment, a thing so when you need a new arm or kidney, you can take it off of another human, alive souly for this purpose.

Thank you for the help with my report with cloning humans and animals. i think that GM is a lot safer than cloning though. i think that cloning using Somatic cell nuclear transfer is not as good as natural cloning. somatic cell nuclear transfer is more about using a somatic cell and and transplanting a nucleas which is not how we were meant to be.

God supports cloning because he himself was the fist person in the world to clone , he made women out of man. He cloned her with the same DNA that Adam had , so dont go saying that GOD doesn't support cloning. Of course cloning has its bad side because the human has a shorter life span and ages quickly. And for you guys who dont believe in God , when it comes time for your judgement in front of Him your going to be punished for wanting to be the boss of yourself and not trust in Him.

human cloning can lead to many problems and benefits. cloning human parts like organs would help the person live but in the long run if everyone started doing it our death tole would decrease and our population would increase which would cause much more problems to our environment(isnt the world supposed to be balanced isnt death part of keeping that balance?).on the other hand cloning tigers and lions would save them which i think would be great it would give us a chance to correct our mistake.also couldnt cloning be used as a weapen making soldiers to fight our battles from what we know of the world we try to use any power over another we can(im not thinking about just tomorrow im thinking many years in the future but the steps we take now are what we become in the future right). would the clones have the freedoms and the respect that a real human gets? i think not. cloning would make our lives alot easier thats all( think about this line).how about f**k cloning and put a limit on how many babys we can make so we dont f**k the world and maybe then our specie will survive longer.cloning should only be done on animals to help our environment that we are destroying, to give our grand grand children a chance to see the world as we saw it. sorry i aint to smart of a dude but even i can see this being wrong. the cloned solider part plz don't be like the government wouldnt allow that why give them the chance.(funny)i think we should get chips implanted in us aswell soo if im ever lost they'll be able to find me yaay right.

Cloning has so many benefits, more than negative ones, and also stronger ones. The only reasons that a properly cloned human would be discriminated against are because a large group of people prefer to only accept and take in what's normal to them. What's normal is only a point of view. In Nazi Germany, anti-semetism was normal, because most people were anti-semetic, but that doesn't make it right. The belief that God created everything, and that he created man in his image, surely that means that he made us to be like him? Life is full of hints, and it just takes a lttle common sense to see them. Before the Noah's Ark, Adam's direct descendents didn't see the hints that they were to be good to everyone and that it brings everyone happiness. If they had accepted eachother in the first place, they wouldn't have all died. Back to the 'man in God's image' point, it basically means that humanity will inevitably endeavour to create things, and make them work well, and to seek betterment for everyone. For this last point to happen, people need ambition. However, the 'normal' people constantly attack ideas that could change things. Christianity is one of the oldest religions, yet science is even older. All the miracles I can think of that have been performed can be re-enacted by science. I don't mean anything nasty toward religion now, I am simply finding loopholes which any open minded person would consider looking through and then see the real light, not this edited version of what Jesus might have spoken that most the anti-cloning people happen to believe. The truth is, cloning doesn't contradict religion, and it is beneficial toward everyone so long as it is kept within boundaries, such as producing super armies, and so long as it's used for good. Remember, it was christianity that kept us in the dark ages. If they didn't happen, because everything science like was considered witchcraft, the world would technologicaly 800 years ahead of where we are now. Space. Most likely intergalactic travel. Cloning without any hitches, surgery to go with it that could repair any damage done, much longer lives due to genetic engineering, and we would have enough space to sustain ourselves and be brave and explorers again. Back to this mundane level of cloning where people are saying ' NOOOO lets NOT clone because we'll be racist to what comes out' and 'od doesn't want people to be the same.' Natural selection clearly points out that the creatures with the best genes will survive in the end, and that life tries to turn out an animal with the best genes. Human evolution is destined to create a race where we are all interbreeding, and the best of what is made survives, so humanity is destined to all end up clones of eachother. And there are no problems anywhere to do with therapeutic cloning (cloning tissues, organs) that can't be solved by simply comparing the very large side of benefits, long and short term, with the superficial side that it's 'just wrong.' Science is right, and so long as people that have been subdued by the illusion of normality don't become leaders in it, it won't collapse. Besides, most the bad hype about cloning comes froms films where film-makers have created holes in it, twisting the ideals to create problems that would only exist in a twisted world, to entice people into watching it. Stem cells aren't people, foetuses don't have enough synapses to even come close to being conscious or having a personality, (besides the genes which will negate their natural dispositions) and abortion is wrong only unless all morally positive options have been exhausted, and that the abortion will benefit everyone in the long term. A baby born to a 14 year old would certainly not receive the correct up bringing to turn out as one of the best of humanity. I would like to see any argument I couldn't win that isn't against some blind fanatic who believes only the religion that they've been fed from a child.

The everyday hypothetical aspects of the human cloning issue are interestingly covered in a TV movie I saw recently; it was sort of a 'what if' scenario that dramatized the decision of a young single mother to clone her daughter. Some of it was a bit hokey, but other parts were pretty apt.

Not sure if it's still playing, but here's the website: http://www.lostinnewmexicomovie.com

cloning is stupid ppl be talkin about how they want to clone animals to eat them why make animals if you going to eat them it doesnt even sound right!!!

All u guys talking about how god wouldnt want this, think about it this way:

If he made humans he must have made them to do something for him or something in that sought, so he might have wanted this to happen.
