well cloning humans is highlly controversial but i believe its because people lack education the same genetics don't make the same person it takes lives expiriences to make a person and they wouldn't grow to be identical in a few days it would take the same time in years but it could lead to issues genetically with crimminals but using cloning for genetical medicines could create infinate possibilities i'm for cloning but that doesn't mean we should let species go extint since we could just make a new one.

Cloning can give us a way to stop extinction, we can clone cows for the best milk, and plants for more medicine.

Cloned humans organs can be used for transplants.

I am for cloning however please leave both sides of the argument here, and remember to vote!!!

Well, one would think it's a no-brainer,

as the benefits are endless, from organ farming (not by killing people, by cloning organs) to feeding the hungry,

there are virtually no drawbacks to the practice.

The only arguement against seems to be from a religious stand point, literally, the only reason I could find is "it's playing god."

Please, please tell me there's a better reason religious people, than this, as that is literally all I could find.

Well, one could argue the following things are playing god,

planting crops,

killing meat to eat,

raising that meat to be killed to be eaten,

healing the sick,

making shelter that protects us from god's elements,

clothes (who's the first to complain if they see a naked person? the religious...)

The list goes on and on.

We're always playing god, since we first used fire, or a god gave us fire and pissed Zeus off, whatever you believe.

Now some people say, actually most I think, that it's okay to clone some things just not people!

I say why?

We're all nothing but a bunch of clones anyway.

Granted, we're less predictable, as we're cloned from multiple sources.

But really, it's the same thing.

Yes, you think about how many people we could save each year with transplants. Maybe even full brain transplants?

I know it's freaky, but the possibilities are too big to pass up on.

no cloning should not be legal it should be ILLEGAL.

In cloning, there are too many risks involved. “More than ninety percent of cloning attempts fail to produce [living] offspring” Since less than ten percent of animals produce viable offspring, the offspring that is produced through cloning ends up dying young. “About one third of cloned calves born alive have died young and many were abnormally large”. Scientists have consistently been unable to fix this problem of animals being born alive and dying young because of their size, so why should they be allowed to kill more and more animals? Cloning involves too many risks most cloning attempts produce no offspring, and many animals that have lived through the birthing have died young anyways because of being born large.

Secondly, numerous adults think cloning is repulsive. “The cloned person may experience concerns with his/her distinctive identity […] because he/she may also be a twin to the person who is his/her father or mother […]”. Adults believe that a cloned child may feel connections to the person they were cloned from. “Also, cloning creates serious issues of identity and individuality”. Cloning creates issues of identity and individuality because you are not you, there are two of you. Cloning is repulsive because a cloned person may feel connections to their clone, and there are two of you not one.

All types of cloning are unethical. It is unethical because it is a drastic invasion of parenthood, “A clone technically has no parents […]”.The clone technically has no parents because they were made from a DNA sample of a person/animal that is alive. The person/animal that is alive, got their DNA from their parents, but the parents did not have sexual intercourse to create the child. Technically the clone has no parents. “In the process of cloning […] love is rejected and replaced by technological reproduction”.If they are a technical reproduction, we may deduce that the clone might feel less human. Cloning is unethical because a clone technically has no parents, and love is rejected to the cloned child.

I think human cloning and animal cloning should be made legal throughout the world.
