The success rate ranges from 0.1 percent to 3 percent‚ which means that for every 1000 tries‚ only one to 30 clones are made. Or you can look at it as 970 to 999 failures in 1000 tries. That’s a lot of effort with only a speck of a return! http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/cloning/cloningrisks/ The risk of producing individuals with developmental anomalies is serious and precludes human cloning for

God created human beings to have intimacy. From the beginning He said it is no good for man to be alone. (Genesis 2:18‚ NIV) As amazing as this may seem‚ even though Adam had a close and intimate relationship with God‚ God knew that Adam needed other types of intimacy; the kind of intimacy another human being can only offer.
