I saw an article in the paper that had 3 or 5 puppies that were clones. It seems scientists didn't stop with Dolly. Should we be concerned that they are creating these animals? Have they already tried to create or recreate a person--Hitler, Eistein, etc.?

You needn't worry about anything, Monique. Human beings will never be successfully cloned. Even the cloned animals don't live long.

Humans are still torn over other moral issues which are already here: eugenics, euthanasia, abortion, etc; what makes anyone think we are ready for human shaped clones created as donor organs?
Part of the problem is our squeamishness and the hypocrisy associated with it. How many of us could go to a slaughterhouse and watch how our food is created? Now try and imagine how people would react watching a (brainless) human shaped clone getting harvested. Inside of 10 minutes of showing that footage a pro-life group would have killed 50 people at a hospital just to get a brainless lump of flesh out of a tank and start protecting its rights to live. What a scary world we live in.
Part of our confusion about cloning is how it applies to people. A full body human clone is a copy of the flesh of something's body but it is NOT the person. It is like a twin, either newborn or even artificially aged. It has no personality or experiences.
In most cases for replacement surgery the clone will not even be a whole body. Great, so you’ve cloned Hitler’s right arm, now we’re in trouble! The only danger I see here is that we are going to get a horrible movie re-make of “The Hand”.

No. We shouldn't be cloning in the first place. It's pointless. Now if they were to make new body parts, that's a different story.

We already have a population explosion happening we dont need anymore popping up. It reminds me of when there was the plauge of frogs. There were frogs everywhere and insted of reversing the effect the Egyptian Magicians reproduced "Moses Trick" creating even more frogs.

Why would they want to clone someone who has already proved themselves a failure by dying. I think they should engineer as perfect a person as they can and use those clones to recolonize the human race. It's our only hope.

I always have thought somewhere, someone has created 'somebody.' Just my view. Then I think, 'in the beginning' where God created man, and now, 'in the end' man has created man. I don't know, might make for a good book!

That is very scary to me. Yes, I think we should definately worry about cloning. For one thing, we are over populated now.

We had a bunch of Whynotaskdon clones and survived it. I say. Bring them on!
