Arguments Against Animal Cloning
The definition of cloning is to make an identical copy of something. There are many different techniques of cloning. Plant cloning, gene cloning, animal cloning, and many others. Most people think of cloning as being a recent breakthrough the world of biology, but methods of cloning have been around for approximately one hundred years. The first example of artificial embryo twinning was in 1855. A scientist named Dreisch, demonstrated that when he simply shook two-celled sea urchin embryos, it made it possible to separate the two cells forming two different sea urchins. This task was possible because of the simplicity of sea urchins. ( the History, 2014)
The “cloning” of the sea urchin was a simple method of cloning. The current, more complex …show more content…
Some say it's a great advancement in the field of biology, and others are against the topic completely, claiming it is ethically unjust. They believe that eventually it will spiral out of control, and humans will be cloned. They have no doubt that humans should never be cloned, and I completely agree. Cloning animals, and eventually humans, goes against the Bible completely. When scientists clone animals, they are ultimately trying to “play God”. Scientists say it's a good idea, but people also thought the Tower of Babel was a good idea. The people were trying to reach the heavens and we are trying to play God. God spread the people up and confused their languages because they were all working together to reach the heavens, so what will he do when we start to clone his creations? God made each of us, so if he would've wanted two of us, don't you think he would've made it that way. An application of cloning that is supposed to be “useful” is to help a couple who cannot conceive a child. The wife can just simple choose to clone herself. This is extremely important to the homosexual community. If two women want to have a child together, one of them may be able to clone herself. In the Bible, God tells us, “Leviticus 18:22: " Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.” So how can this be useful to any Christian, if they don't want to disobey
