As many souls as the original.

Yes it would definitely have. But that wouldn't mean they have cloned a soul. It would simply be another soul has entered the body. The body is like a vacant apartment which is open for use by anyone who can foord the rent. The scientist are mere builders. They can build the apartments but they can not "build" the people to stay in it.

Of Course!! Is the clone breathing, talking? Does he/she breath?
Sometimes people can't change the way they are created. Test tube babies are partially created becauseof man... it doesn't mean that they don't have a soul.
As long as a clone isn't used for immoral things, like organ donation or anything of that sort, there is no reason why he/she shouldn't have a normal life like everyone else; regardless how they came to the world. They will have a soul like everyone else in the world.

Soul is a religious term and open to interpretation. But if it thinks then it would have a consciousness, similar to a soul. On a side note, did you know that there's no evolution in a clone?

I definetely don't think so...but there comes a moment when you have to think-was it actually the soul-everyone knows of it,but i think no one could explain what it is..we think it's the very thing that makes us human-mentally,not physically,so i guess there's no way for the clone to have a soul-after all,it isnt mentally human!

No, because there is no such thing. The clone would match the original genetically, but much of human development depends on surroundings, and these will differ. (Consider identical twins, which could be considered clones of each other.)

Even the soul in a natural body is filled by God only. Soul is always His subject, body is the subject of our parents.
So the cloned body will be the subject of the scientists, but the soul will always be His subject.
Are you satisfied by the answer?

Yes. Identical twins have souls, and I suppose clones are not any different.

humans create babies and it is basically tacit that their babies have souls .. if the process of making someone should differ then i think yes maybe it will have a soul .. because just like the person making the baby God guides the cloner leading him/her by divine power .. if you think about it .. the two bananas haven't got many differences i don't know maybe it's just me .. my friend has a different take on it though .. he says, it's lucky enough to have a living body

yes
there are clones in nature all the time and no one would argue that THEY don't have souls!
