Bioethics | There’s Nothing Wrong With Having Your Own Harry Styles |
One of the largest arguments contradicting the idea of cloning goes back to the day humans were created (or religion was created for evolutionists). Not in a literal sense, as obviously the idea of ‘cloning’ hadn’t crossed anyone’s mind. But the idea of God had and the idea of someone with a greater power than humans had. And what’s the number one rule of humans when it comes to life on Earth? Don’t mess with the bigger man. Nothing against humans, but if this were really the way we should be thinking, then people wouldn’t …show more content…
Instead of every teenage girl hanging up posters of their favourite teen pop/movie star in their room, and drooling over the wedding that will never happen, they can simply clone their own celebrity and have their very own! Is it fair to create human life simply for the pleasure of another human being? And would this new clone be considered human? Would there be competition amongst the other clones of the same person?

Just for someone to have a ‘toy’ in a sense? What is the purpose of having a celebrity cloned if not for amusement or ego? This would be an unhealthy environment for a clone child to live in, especially if the child doesn’t live up to one’s expectations. A lot of pressure may be placed on the child to become rich and famous, and if that didn’t happen they may feel like a disappointment. A clone child may also be bullied by other children who are born of a biological mother and father. Many religions and cultures may argue that you are playing God, but as stated before in the introduction, that argument is backward, and doesn’t make any
