Are reason and emotion equally necessary in justifying moral decisions? Emotion and reason are two different ways of knowing but can both be used in the same situation. However‚ does one have a higher weighting than the other when it comes to making moral decisions?

The concepts of cloning—in some ways—remind me of a movie called “Blade Runner” (based off of a book entitled Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?). The movie presented a fictional world where genetically engineered “Replicants” (humans designed for labor and/or entertainment purposes) attempted to prolong their four year limited lifespan. Several of these replicants were given identities and a full set of artificial memories in the hopes that they would stay sane and stable. As the story progressed

And those victims whom you have so diabolically murdered!” (Shelley 65). Though I expected this reception yet‚ as I said that day‚ it still burdens me to think about

In my paper‚ I will argue that reproductive cloning is morally permissible because of its similarity to in-vitro fertilization. After that I will offer a counter argument suggest that it’s better to utilize limited amount of oocytes on a group of sickness rather than infertile people. I think reproductive cloning is morally permissible because reproductive cloning brings
