Many scientists, doctors and researchers have a god-like complex. Because they cannot prevent and cure the diseases we already have and suffer from, they feel the need to come up with innovating procedures to make a name for themselves. Cloning? Isn't it God's job to create life? Where will this lead and where will it end? Stem Cell research? Take a part of a created human being and use it to help out an ill human. Where would this lead and where would it end? Genetic Engineering? Engineering is the word that throws me here. I am against all three and no I would not partake in any of them even if I needed a heart. Embryonic stem cell is repulsive to me and the day will come when they will pay women to get pregnant because there aren't enough embryonic stem cells to go around. Man abuses everything!

Yeah i heard of this company. ITS AMAZING! THey already can clone bladders for you. They are currently working on kidneys and hearts.! ITs amazing! SO many people will have better lives because of this.
Whzats up with these conspiracy theorists all worried about human farming? Not one company is even considering cloning an entire human being to get organs. They can simply just make them with out the rest of the body. It would be worth it to clone an entire body just for a few organs when they can just clone the organs they need with just a sample and some stem cells.
THANK GOD THEY PASSED THE STEM CELL FUNDING BILL!!!!

I think that the problem lies in using stem cells from embryos and life that is not born yet. If we could clone our own organs from us then that would really work out nice. The other thing to think of is that when these things like this are accepted into law, people can twist and turn them into all kinds of misconceptions that were never intended. We have to think about all sides before any of it is brought about into our society. I really want all diseases cured and healed but not at the expense of my grandchildren and their world. If it was just for people on donor lists and disease that is one thing but what about all the blind children born who will change our world for the better with their lives, or the parents who want perfected children without cavities and split ends. It is a far off notion but you never know where things can go. It scares me to think of the possibilities but yet i am intrigued to think of my grammy without her pain from lupus or my daughter without her leg brace. I guess we all need to be careful what we wish for because we just might get it.

I don't know about Catholics but I am a Christian and I don't believe in cloning, such as for stem cell research. Leave the creating to God where if belongs.

I would need to know more about the process to tell you weather of not its wrong... As a guideline though if the Cloning of your organs requires the creation and destruction of a life yes... If you can use other means I personally can see no reason why it would be.

The Catholic Church has the highest regard for human life and human dignity from the beginning of life at conception until natural death.
Human cloning, that is the creation of a human embryo through scientific means, does injury to the dignity of humanity. Will these children be brought up in loving families, treated as laboratory experiments, or used as sources of spare parts?
Every human being is entitled to human rights including cloned human embryos. If created, they should be treated with the same rights and respect of any other human being as a child of God.
The Catholic Church is not just against cloning, it is pro-life in the widest sense. This is often called a "Consistent Ethic of Life."
This pro-life stance stresses the highest regard for dignity of human life including that of:
- All people in objecting to unjust war and nuclear arms.
- The unborn in objecting to to abortion, in fitro fertilization, frozen embryos, embryonic stem cell research, and cloning
- The elderly, sick and dying in objecting to assisted suicide and euthanazia
- Prisoners in objecting to the death penalty
- The poor and minorities in supporting social justice issues.
With love in Christ.

It depends on the organ. Kidneys and livers are essential, hearts and lungs, maybe, but the organs below the waist are a no-no.
