Ethical or no?

[bossydacow]

From what I've read, cloning for research is ok with me. But that isn't an educated opinion - I don't know much about it at all.

[yeat182]

i'm all for cloning

[evil zach]

Was it ever confiermed if the raelians did infact clone a human? Thats one religion I'd want to join. Their leader is a race car driver! how cool is that?

[yeat182]

they remind me of that cult from the simpsons...with the "leader beans"

They never confirmed it

There's this one cult I'm really interested in joining. They're called the Branch Davidians. I see good things in their future.

I think it should be done, however only for disease treatment. But then again, I'm out of my element when it comes to cloning.

[lessthankate]

I'm pro-life and I would have to say I'm against cloning. Everyone is an individual and should be able to stay that way.

[DevilMayCare]

the raelians claim was never proved to be true but they did say that they named "her" (i dont know how to phrase that without it sounding a bit off for me) eve. now, what better way to piss off the religious right? anyway, i am for cloning for medicinal purposes but when it gets into the area of growing bodies purely for the reason of harvesting their body parts, i am against that. and as for pro-lifers, there are more ways to get stem cells than aborted fetuses but since it is 4:30 in the morning, they all seem to have escaped me. when i remember ill be sure to post em.

[Alex Djaferis]

im not for cloning.

[trogdor]

as long as it's purely for medical research and the like.. I wouldnt want cloned human beings walking around.

[Clarett'sGreyGoose]

i think that cloning for medical research should be done, i mean...you could use clones to find a cure for AIDS, or SARS, or whatever. Cloning shouldn't be done just because you want to have a clone. I'm sure most people that would want to be cloned don't know that if you got cloned, the thing would end up being born as a baby. So you could be 22, but you'd have a 2 month old clone. What the fuck is the point of that? Uneducated fools....

seeing as how that seemed to go over everyone elses head..... i will start by saying that i got it . w00t for waco. anyway....

i like the idea of cloning. the possibilities for science and medicine are too valuable to not explore.

So nobody has a problem with farming humans for research purposes?

Most people have problems with the use of animals in research, so I'm surprised that so few people find this a little scary. It poses some pretty serious ethical questions.

I think it comes down to people looking to save themselves. If they become seriously ill, they want a cure and a chance to survive. To me, that's why there's so little objection.
