We need to clone humans in order to        progress as the human race! It's just like when people get        all touchy on the subject of stem cells or abortion - your        religion, not mine. If you don't like it to bad for you, we        need to be able to create a person who is genetically        identical to the person who was cloned. Think of all the        uses the cloned body would have. If you needed a new set of        lungs, well what do you know... A brand new set. These        people would not be living, they would be vegetables who do        not have a personality nor would they feel pain. We ned to        boot morality out the door and focus on curing diseases        that kill millions of people each year. If we had human        test subjects that weren't 'living' we could solve problems        faster! It's all of you softies that think it's inhumane.        You want to know what I find inhuman, letting people in our        own countries starve whilst we save those in Africa. Call        me a monster but human cloning is the way to go and I'll        stick by my argument till the day I die.      <\/p>\n<p>        Dolly took 267 tries before she was made and she still had        problems, and lived a much shorter life than all other        sheep. There could also be overpopulation and a major        shortage of food. This is a big problem for all humanity        and the Government should ban it very soon.      <\/p>\n<p>        It is a right that people of America should have. If        someone has a failing heart they can reproduce them. If        someone is hurting over a death, they can reproduce the        child. It is smart and a futuristic idea. Right now it        usually ends in failures but sooner or later it may just be        another race in the world.      <\/p>\n<p>        We are in charge of our own fates, so why would we leave it        to chance? Hypothetically, if god gave us the disease, with        today's modern science, he's giving us the chance to change        it. Why would we leave life threatening diseases in the        hands of some higher power when the cure is right in front        of us?      <\/p>\n<p>        I dont believe in it. Its not up to people to clone, only        God can create life. You cannot reproduce a soul. It is        impossible and the technology today wouldnt be able to do        it. Maybe one day they can complete the task of cloning        it would just be a blob of skin because there wouldn't be a        soul to control the body.      <\/p>\n<p>        I'm assuming that you are talking about therapeutic        cloning, which is the process where you clone a human to        get a human embryo so you can harvest stem cells so you can        make organs and transplant those organs to people that need        them. Of course this process kills the embryo. I view this        like I view abortion, the embryo is not a person yet, not        technically. They don't have any thoughts or experiences,        they are living, but their life force, is nothing more than        a flower or a blade of grass. And to kill a blade of grass        so you can get an organ to save a life, is okay. Of course        the cons to therapeutic cloning is how much it costs, but        this debate is more about ethics than anything else, and        killing a human embryo to save a life IS ethical.      <\/p>\n<p>        It can save lives due to the possibility of cloning organs        such as hearts. And any one with religious arguments (life        is sacred don't play god etc etc.), shut up, okay? Religion        is an excuse to justify the un-justifiable. And even then        it is a bad excuse. If god has spoken to you...You have ADD        and you're hearing things that aren't there. God speaking        is a medical DISABILITY.      <\/p>\n<p>        Human cloning is not bad because it is purely for science,        religion is a whole other topic then cloning because        although I respect your religion and your beliefs, your        statement isn't what I would call correct. Human cloning        already happens naturally for all those people who don't        know that. There is something called human twins, duh, they        are technically under the category of cloning. So, it is        naturally and religion shouldn't be pulled into pure        science.      <\/p>\n<p>        It isn't certain that the clones will have the same        personality as the original, and also it is not playing god        because then wouldn't doctors also be playing god because        they save lives and change fate that may not need to be        changed. Doctors give drugs so that people feel better and        could be saved.      <\/p>\n<p>        We already play god; curing diseases, hospitals, reviving        people who die of heart attacks, implanting embryos, etc.        Why should cloning be treated any differently? The people        arguing against human cloning speak about the cloned people        as if they wouldn't be human. They could have every        opportunity for intelligence as the person they were cloned        from. They'd be nothing less than a younger identical twin.        So why not clone? Even organ cloning would be incredibly        helpful to humans as a species, if you could clone healthy        heart or liver cells and implant them into the heart or        liver of the person who gave the healthy, but needed the        cloned ones to cure a disease or just an injury, they could        live longer, because of a few cloned cells.
