created a woman. Then, the two of them created a
new life. This was all naturally done. It was
God's most wonderful creation. Cloning brings up a

of individuals the power of creating and granting
life. And this is done by basically duplicating
one individual, by creating a twin of somebody
else. Furthermore, cloning is a life dilemma
because it makes the whole human race to choose
