The cloning of humans is now very close to reality‚ thanks to the historic scientific breakthrough of Dr. Ian Wilmut and his colleagues in the UK. This possibility is one of incredible potential benefit for all of us. Unfortunately the initial debate on this issue has been dominated by misleading‚ sensationalized accounts in the news media and negative emotional reactions derived from inaccurate science fiction. Much of the negativity about human cloning is based simply on the breathtaking novelty

“Hitler Clone’s and playing G-d?” “Hitler Cloning” and “scientists playing God” are statements used to describe human cloning. When it comes down to the truth of the matter‚ human cloning is a scientific breakthrough that has a higher chance of helping society than hurting it. There are many people who are skeptical‚ believing that a world full of genetically reproduced miniature Hitler’s will be created through human cloning. They imagine a second Holocaust starting as the cloned Nazi

To consider the cloning of another human being forces me to question the very concepts of right and wrong that make us all human. <br> <br>Until the birth of Dolly the sheep‚ the first mammal to be successfully cloned‚ it was thought that the ability to clone an adult human was impossible or would only be possible somewhere in the distant future! But that has all changed with the birth of Dolly and the explosion of advances in the field of Embryology and genetic screening. These advances are leading

Human Cloning Doctor Jerome Kassirer once said‚ “I’m willing to hold off completely on any kind of human cloning‚ but I’m not willing to hold off on research that could yield enormous therapeutic benefit.” Human cloning is a controversial topic in science and medicine. While some are all for human cloning‚ others disregard the idea all together because they see the con’s before they can understand the major advantages of pros. But what exactly is human cloning?

Research Paper on Human Cloning Introduction: The possibility of human cloning‚ raised when Scottish scientists at Roslin Institute created the much-celebrated sheep "Dolly"‚ aroused worldwide interest and concern because of its scientific and ethical implications. The feat‚ cited by Science magazine as the breakthrough of 1997‚ also generated uncertainty over the meaning of "cloning" --an umbrella term traditionally used by scientists to describe different processes for duplicating biological

Cloning on Humans Over my years here at college‚ I have learned a lot about humans and how our bodies function. One of the classes that really stuck out to me and caught my interest was genetics. I enjoyed learning about our DNA and how it worked in terms of reproduction. A topic that we covered during the course of this class was on cloning. I learned about the different types of cloning and when the focus on our in class discussions was on reproductive and therapeutic cloning‚ I became
