One thing to point out is that when Thomas Eddison invented the light bulb he did it hundreds of times before he got one to work. Those against cloning condemn that argument because when Henry Ford dug up the ground behind his lab he found all the light bulbs that Eddison had just thrown out the back like a garbage dump. You cannot just throw out human lives that didn't come out the way you wanted it to, and if you if it d...

Embryo Cloning Genetic Determinism
1,165 wordsThe news about the successful cloning of an adult sheep, in which the sheep's DNA was inserted into a fertilized sheep egg to produce a lamb with identical DNA, has generated an outpouring of ethical concerns. These concerns are not about Dolly, the first cloned mammal, nor even about the considerable impact cloning may have on the animal breeding industry. Theyre about the possibility of cloning humans. For the most part, however, the ethical concerns being raised are exaggerated and misplaced....
