Question

as in HUMANS and ANIMALS?

Answer 1

Q. What comes in vanilla, vanilla and vanilla?

A. Ice cream clones.

Clones are people two.

Answer 2

I think so if used in the right conditions such as if someone needed a new Liver who better to match your own DNA than yourself so if it was to create body parts that you need or had lost in an accident or so then i reckon that would be ok but im not quite sure about making a whole person as im not really a religous person but i do what feels right and i dont think that making a person like that would really do any good as im sensing a "the Island" sort of thing where people are cloned and then the clones are killed when the "original" needs a body part. Im for Stem Cell Research as it can help many people.

So basically for me science can do alot of good just as long as it dosent go into stuff that people feel is going against human nature.

Answer 3

wow, technology has come a long way. But how could we tell who is the real one, how do we know the clone is safe, why clone a human or animal?

Answer 4

Good is a moral and arbitrary term.
Good for who?

Cloning may make us live longer lives, with better organs. But it may cause our extinction with sterilization and lack of a diversified gene pool.

It raises so many questions that our primitive minds can't collectively handle that at least in the short run it will be more problematic than anything we have yet faced.

But cloning is only a technology, it's moral shading has to do with how it is implimented and who evaluates the effect.

Your subject is to general for a proper answer.

Answer 5

if u want more of a certain animal then yes. but there hasn't been a successful cloning. things have been cloned but weren't able to live for a long time because of the processes that it goes through while being cloned. The clone never lives.

Answer 6

yes, it will help with disease treatment in humans. (as in cloning ORGANS) all we have to do is make sure it doesn't go too far. as for stem cells, they're from half a life-form (an egg) and there's no shortage of them. overall i'd say it's good.

Answer 7

when used ethically...yes. You can clone enzymes for organ from healthy specimen to give to those that have unhealthy organs.

Answer 8

Cloning is just wrong.

Answer 9

Think about it. Cloning is creating a twin of yourself. So if you are in a car accident and died. No problemo. You didn't really die, your twin is still there. Nice, eh?

Answer 10

animals yea
humans not until they perfect it through out several situations
