The cloning of humans is now very close to reality‚ thanks to the historic scientific breakthrough of Dr. Ian Wilmut and his colleagues in the UK. This possibility is one of incredible potential benefit for all of us. Unfortunately the initial debate on this issue has been dominated by misleading‚ sensationalized accounts in the news media and negative emotional reactions derived from inaccurate science fiction. Much of the negativity about human cloning is based simply on the breathtaking novelty

Before the famous Dolly the Sheep‚ cloning was not quite what it is considered today. The first example that could be considered “cloning” took place in 1885. Hans Adolf Edward Dreisch discovered that if he shook the two-celled embryos of sea urchins‚ the cells could separate and grow into two identical sea urchins. A couple decades later in 1902‚ Hans Spemann decided to find out if he could do the same‚ this time with salamander embryos. These embryos were stickier than those of sea urchins so

advancements are possible through genetic cloning. Many people hear the word cloning‚ and become so appalled that we would ever think of such a thing. They believe that we are not to play God‚ by growing body parts and organs just for research. I agree that genetic cloning is a very sensitive issue‚ both ethically and religiously‚ however‚ the medical and psychological advantages outweigh the few disadvantages. Many religious groups are up in arm about the idea of cloning‚ especially the thought of using

My opinion is that I disagree with the government using tax dollars for any type of cloning because it’s is not right to clone someone if they died they should rest in peace.
