We use plants and other animals to aid our medicines and other chemicals to help us live. Are human lives more important than the other life forms on our planet? Just because a human has the ability to speak and think does not make it any more special than an elephant or a tiger or an oak tree.
The life of a clone was created by humans, it is just the same as harvesting plants for our medicine. That takes life too, but I am sure you have taken many medicines that have used up plants or other life forms. To say humans have more of a right to life than another organism is not right either.
Thousands will die if we do not develop this technology. Playing God has always been a goal in human history, but instead of immense power, we are aiming for the power to create life which will help extend the lives of many
That is true, however, human clones would not be roaming the streets and reproducing. The human clones would be used for medical support. Plants and other animals that have been cloned will have a minimized gene pools, but they would most likely be used for farming and harvesting for food. Inbreeding would not occur if it is the same set of genetic code being repeated
My Sister's Keeper was a book about a family whose daughter was diagnosed with cancer. Once the parents found out, they had another child to be used for "parts." If there were clones, a new, original human life would not be used to try to cure those who were granted life. Instead, the clone would be used as a vestibule for parts.
Clones are not meant to be made into people. Most of the time, clones are seen as tools or devices to be used to aid in human advancement. Clones would not be walking around in the world like we do
But for reals: Cloning allows us to weed out imperfections in crops or other organisms
