I'm not a Christian but I still am against cloning humans, at least using current methods.
Basically, if a person is cloned by having one of their cell nuclei extracted and transplanted into an egg cell - this method was used for such clones as the famous Dolly the sheep - the genetic age of the donor is carried over as well. When the clone is born it will already be genetically the same age as the donor and as such it's life-span will be short. Not exactly humane.

Well, I am anti-cloning and I am not religious. Someone manages to take a blood sample and make a clone who will clear my bank account. How will the bank stop them? Clones have same fingerprints as well.

Don't know who might speeak for the majority of Christianity, but I would guess that the overwhelming majority of us would tend to reject the idea. Not sure if the Roman Catholic Pope has issued any definitive advice, but he is the best thing to a single voice for a large fraction of us.

DEAD WRONG....
We simply CANNOT try to play God. We are just asking for trouble in trying to accomplish that.
Edit:
It's funny how a society so hell-bent on death through abortion is suddenly interested in creating life through cloning....
Double-standard America

I am 100% against it! Creating life is Gods job.

Nothing to do with religion, but one of me is all I can take.

{DON'T} Cause it don't exist & it never will. And that's how I feel about it.
