Does church accept human cloning? It says god put soul in the body so it works..If clone works so it got soul?

Question

And since if human cloning works it means it got soul therefore God permits it coz only god can create soul. So why the church making it a big deal

IF church says it against god..how can it be against him if he permits it by giving soul so the human clone works...as what they said that body wont work without soul. or maybe theres no soul at all..

Answer 1

The Catholic church does not even accept invitro fertilization. They will never accept cloning.

Answer 2

All's you do when you make a clone, is make a twin to the person you are cloning. Just as a twin has a soul, so would the clone. I don't agree with cloning because I dont see the point. I mean wouldn't you need to get the parents permission of the person you are cloning before doing so, since what you are really doing is making them another child. Why would you want to make a twin anyways? I dont understand the point at all. I thinking cloning organs would be great because it would save lives, but to clone an entire person is pointless.

Answer 3

People really want to clone plants animals and humans as part of the continuing research into genetics and how the whole process of reproduction life and death works.

This research is all a continuation of the work done by the "father of genetics", Gregor Mendel (1822 - 1884). Mendel's interest was in producing better pea plants. Better pea plants, producing a larger crop, may well have been against God's will but, it would have improved the lot of the Augustine monastery where Mendel was a monk. Perhaps monks have a special dispensation allowing them to tinker with life.

Answer 4

No the Bible says not something about cloning..in spite of the undeniable fact that it would want to be hostile to God.. For Christians, this comes right down to God's created order that we marry and convey children by the His ordained technique of procreation. Human cloning is going by comparison and negative aspects the manipulation and homicide of yet another human existence. Then there is the question of the soul. Does a clone have a soul, on the grounds that God created guy in completeness... the cloning of finished human beings might want to be incorrect because it rebels hostile to God's created order of having a mom and a father, of employing the God-ordained procreative capacity, and it usurps God's sovereign correct to be the author of the existence contained in the womb. technology needs clones extra for stem cellular study..on the grounds that even as is it acceptable to sacrifice the existence of one human for yet another..?????

Answer 5

No, the church does not.
God is the only One that can create a soul in a human.
The one thing left out by scientists that insist on cloning a human being.
In order to have a soul, one must be human, and not a clone. Clones are not humans, they are " copies " of people. ( or animals. )

Answer 6

Church does not accept clones. They can not countenance any interference in God's creation. Science has reached a stage when it is challenging accepted values. Once Church did not accept that Sun was at the center of solar system.later they had no choice but to accept. Like wise things will be disputed at first.However at some stage reality will have to be accepted.

Answer 7

You could argue that god created the universe so that certain, very complex, combinations of matter would be animated with what we call life. In this sense, then, any time the right combination of matter is achieved a soul is present. In this scenario God is not even being circumvented.

Answer 8

Clones are genetic copy of the doner's genes. the church is against cloning. and the clone wont get a soul. the clone will be same as its doner, it will behave the same as its doner, and will have the same tendencies as the doner.

Answer 9

humans are just afraid of a double of himself thats thinking differently. if im not wrong a soul is just a neutral state of mind that adapts to any exterior interference, like if you live with poor people, you learn to steal or be very humble, if you live with rich people, you would be pompous or be generous

back to the answer, it might be a yes or no, it depends on the church goers haha. if all of them say yes then its a yes. if all of them protest means no. i guess its a no looking at the response

Answer 10

that is an interesting question, you would have to research all churches (or religions individually), yet to save the time I believe the answer will be: No churches don't accept cloning.
