Possibly talk about human rights issues, for example: would humans and clones be guaranteed the same rights by the government?

Cloning human ORGANS= ok in my book. It could save lives, obvously . . . BUT Cloning humans as a whole- BAD IDEA. Worst idea ever. Just imagine the life of the poor clone if it actually had to come into this world. We don't need to learn how to clone humans. It wouldn't be the same person anyway, only in looks. I don't understand why anyone would want to do it, other than the fame and fortune that would come along with it- I think that it could ultimatly end in tragedy, for example, what if someone cloned a "master race" ?? Everyone would be beautiful and skinny . . . it'll be like Hitler, all over again. History repeats itself, right?

It's sad when I see that most of people don't understand what the cloning is, but they are making scarecrow of it.
Apropos, monovular twins are natural clones - good example that your clone would resemble you, but he/she would be another person with his/her own personality. There's no way to "repeat" the genius.
I agree with human cloning of organs for puroposes of medicine, but I have one reason for you:
In the question of human reproduction, genetic variablilty of population (which arises by sexual reproduction) is very important. For good survival of the species, it's essential that the natural selection has wide, variable genetic pool to choose from. So cloning for the purpose of reproduction would hinder the development of the human race.

I don't know if this makes cloning "bad" or not, but there is simply no "good" reason to clone a human.
(This doesn't mean stem cell research meant to help the health of existing people isn't good)

i'm all for cloning of organs so that the body does not refuse them, and it kicks prosthetic limbs up the butt!!! (bad pun, i know) !
