How would clones feel and what would they do knowing they have no parents, no soul, etc.

We can mass produce humans with scientifically proven genes who will make superior scientists, doctors, soldiers, athletes, etc.
We can also use them for spare body parts i guess lool.....even though thats evil lol

Cloning of plants and animals should be supported, but i dont think the world is ready for human cloning yet. But then again were allowing faggots to get married and adopt children, why not cloning?

1. The dangers for making humans are psychological such as feeling inferior because they are just a copy.........Feelings of not having their own identity. There are also physical dangers because the long term consequences are not that well studied like how long will they life.

2/3. Cloning should not banned in terms of animals and plants because the world population is increasing and so we need the resources.
 
I believe cloning is ethically and morally wrong in regards to cloning humans. It does however have its scientific and medicinal benefits.

1. scientists will be able to clone your own heart, liver, and other vital internal organs to replace damaged ones because of the effects of transplants and the tendency of the human body to reject them. Skin and other external body parts, such as nose, ears, lips, skin can be cloned from your own cells to replace damaged ones.

2. cloning animals would replace those ones that have passed

Cloning would be dangerous because religiously God created only one of us. Ethically, there is only one of us, there is no guarantees that the clone will be an exact replica of us. I personally think it's wrong.

like babylonx said .. how they would feel bout having no soul/parents .... to come from literally nothing .. its almost like they'll get this mentality where they came from nothing, therefore have nothing to lose... no morality... no conscience... and i kno there are people that are not cloned and fit the description of what i just said.... but i dunno ... where does it end... if u give someone life and they do something terrible... do u have the right to take it away? i dunno, its just too much ... stay away from it all ...

Is that in relation to the "test tube" baby from the 80's? If i am not mistaken.
 
i have no idea what i was referring to ... im not that familiar with cloning ... so i tried to make sense with what little i know... and im not sure how far it got me....what i was basically saying was ... no one should play god...

What worries me the most is cloning people that would cause harm to society/world.
Imagine someone would try to clone bush, osama or saddam? Yea, that worries me, big time.

What aspects of cloning offer the most potential?
Just like someone mentioned, cloning would be good to have top doctors, engineers, etc. etc. that would help us in a good way?

Should cloning be banned? Cloning of animals? plants? People?
I think cloning should be banned when it comes to people because of the reason I mentioned above in regards to what I fear about cloning.

Cloning of animals, I don?t see any benefit to that; however cloning of plants I would say no it should not be forbidden for medical reasons?
 
1) What dangers of cloning worry me the most?
A: None

2) What aspects of cloning are the most potential?
A: Being able to clone genes and create hybrid plants, mass produce desired proteins, extract the proteins and use them to help cure illnesses, as a source of nutrition, etc etc => BIOTECHNOLOGY. Or cloning genes in order to provide gene therapy... or cloning genes to study the effects of a protein that could be the cause of a specific disease. As far as cloning a whole organism, what's the point? Sex is better. Cloning human genes would be great (we already do that actually...)... stem cell research is even more promising.

3) Should cloning be banned? Cloning of animals? plants? People?
A: cloning of plants can select for good crops, and the world needs good crops if we're going to sustain a large population. Cloning animals and people has no use as far as I know, aside from learning how exactly fertilization occurs. No proper scientist would use cloning as a means of selecting for specific traits to make a super human species (as some weirdos think) because scientists understand the concept of selection, and selection requires differences within a population even if those differences seem negative at first.
