Do you think people should be allowed to clone?

Czas na Zywiec · 07-15-2002, 03:05 PM

No.

I think it's not as black and white as your question implies.

I think it's wholly dependent on what they are cloning and why.

I personally have no moral or ethical problem if people wanted to clone their own organs so they can have a stock available for transplant later in life.

I have more of a problem with the concept of cloning a whole entire human being.

Personally, I think cloning pets is stupid, and I'm not quite sure how I feel about that moral-wise.

Cloning animals such as livestock is something I don't really think we have to worry about because it's not wise from an economic point of view for farmers to do that.

Actually, I was just trying to get a semi-debate going.

The teachers in my school are cloned. I have two stories.

1. Allison, Jackie (

), and I were walkin down the hall and we passed Mr. Mendez (

) and then we saw him in a totally diff hallway like 2 seconds later.

2. I forget.

I don't think some people should be allowed to talk!

Seriously, it is a good question. I don't think would be a good idea. There are too may people trying to play God out there, we don't need anymore.

I'll get down off my soapbox now.

My answer to that question is an unequivocal "no".

I know Jo wants to get some kind of debate going here, so...

I can see some of the benefits of cloning.
What if you needed a heart or liver transplant? Wouldn't it be amazing if scientists using your DNA could clone you a new healthy organ that would be a perfect match for your body?

DarleneIllyria · 07-15-2002, 07:50 PM

Here's my whole idea on it.

Life is like a cycle right? When someone dies, somebody is usually born. First off, if people had their own little stock of cloned hearts and lungs and such, we would more than likely live forever. Second, if you cloned a whole human too- it would lead to overpopulation problems.

Just my 2 cents....

JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo · 07-15-2002, 08:26 PM

Yes.

no, i don't think we should have the whole "urkel" clone where he cloned the cute version of himself... lol, but instead of people dieing from the lack of availbel hearts on heart translplatns, and lungs, etc... that problem could be slightly solved by the use of cloning. People shouldn't have a backstock, but I think in desperate situations, it could really be useful.

Nope. It'd screw up the "balance" of everything. ((if that makes any sense @ all!))

BUMPER STICKER!

OMG LOL Jackie (

) said the funniest thing once, she said 'They kill the people and then they clone them!' and Lani and I looked @ each other and went 'Then there'd be two dead people!!'
