If you could clone yourself for organ transplants, would you?

Question

this is a big ethics question so go ahead and rant.

Personally, I woudln't.
A human is a human no matter what

Answer 1

This is like saying "If you could have a baby to provide organs for transplant, would you?"

Life is life. The point of conception (uterus or test tube) makes no difference in terms of ethics or the soul.

No way....what you are talking about is murder.

BTW, it will take the clone 20 years to reach adulthood...if you can live another 20 years without the organ, what is the point?

Answer 2

that's a good question, I'm very healthy, so if it would help someone and save their life, I would for sure. I have had family that's had to have organ transplants, and family that's had surgery on very important organs, and if I could have I would have donated what they had to have operated on, it's much healthier than what they had, or have. I couldn't live without those organs though, but the cloning sounds like a really good idea actually. Have a good day.

Answer 3

I wouldn't cuz ok usually i won't bring religion or God into Y!As but cloning i think is wrong even if it was cloning my self just to help save a life. I think God would have prolly intended on something to happen if they were meant to live then they are he will send a miracle. I know i may save a life by cloning myself but that still wouldn't be right. nature has its ways. Its like Natural selection. I don't mean to sound harsh but. even if me cloning myself would save a family member of mine i still wouldn't. i would pray for them. I wouldn't have them clone me cuz i think that is wrong i think that science and its technology has gone TOO far. they are like cheating and finding more and more ways to cheat nature. i think it is wrong so no i wouldn't. (i hope i helped answer your question. this was a good one.) you're right a human is still a human no matter what.

Answer 4

In a New York minute! I'm alive today because some stranger died & gave me parts of his body. If a stranger was willing to do that for me, I'd sacrifice my clone without a second thought.

Answer 5

The problem with cloning is that it degrades the integrety of the material clones like aluminum, the more you clone it the more degraded it becomes and do you really want to be putting substandard parts in your body? I don't think so.

Answer 6

how could I get some one to cut up my beautiful little chubby ***, but really they should create the clones but make them complete vegitables like just turn off the oxygen while their in the test tube or keep the doped up all the time so they dont feel pain.

Answer 7

No,
because it would still be me.........

if it was too much like me, I'd probably end up killing it !
I cannot imagine living with me.

*Now here's another question for ya to ponder,
If I kill my clone--have I killed myself???

Answer 8

Nope; not until they come up with an entire anti-aging pill.

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

No
