Is Therapeutic Cloning Worth the Risk? Is Therapeutic Cloning Worth the Risk? I. The history of cloning A few years ago‚ a movie showed how Adolf Hitler could have been cloned to produce copies of himself. Of course‚ this is a terrible idea‚ because as we know‚ Hitler killed millions of people. Yet‚ people now have cloning that can benefit humankind. The events in the movie were imaginary‚ but during the 20th century‚ cloning became real. Cloning of plants and small animals has been practiced

Cloning is a very opinionated discussion. Some people like it some people don’t. To me cloning has way too many horrible outcomes. For example‚ there is an extremely high risk of testing failure and overpopulation. It could least to a lot of wasted money on unnecessary things. Cloning does have some positive effects. It could really increase and stabilize our medicine process. It could easily boost us and help medically for people. Cloning would also help people who need organs to survive

Cloning: Great Advancement or Crime against Humanity In the past few years‚ human cloning has gone from a laboratory fantasy to a global debate. There are many arguments supporting both negative and positive effects of human cloning. According to BBC News religious leaders have said that Cloning is unethical and even a crime against God including The Catholic Pope John Paul II has condemned the Cloning research (Willey). Will human cloning be a great step for man‚ or will it lead to moral abyss

Cloning Morality Cloning is the process of recreating a genetic copy of an entire organism or sequence of DNA. Genetic clones occur naturally in asexual reproduction and in the birth of identical twins. Clones can also be produced artificially from a number of processes including gene cloning‚ reproductive cloning‚ and therapeutic cloning. The University of Utah health science department tells us that the scientific history of artificial cloning spans more than one hundred years. (Genetic Science

We have learned so much information about animal’s genes and what can be done with them. However‚ with this new information brings new questions and arguments. So far‚ scientists have successfully cloned a sheep‚ a monkey‚ a bull‚ and are working on an endangered breed of ox‚ of course cloning animals and conducting research on those animals does

Christian attitudes towards cloning By Ross Goldsborough Since Dolly the sheep was successfully cloned in 1997‚ and the possibility of cloning humans became a reality‚ Christian leaders have been ever thinking about whether or not cloning is morally right or wrong. While many Christians tend to disagree with the practice‚ such as Roman Catholics and a majority of fundamentalist pastors‚ the views taken by various other Christian denominations are very different and often‚ It is hard to pinpoint

Reproductive cloning would have no advantages because it would be a different person in someone else’s body. Reproductive cloning is not very effective with humans‚ or a lot of animals. Scientist have cloned two endangered animals that did have a successful birth‚ but they died shortly after the birth (Cloning Fact). There

April 23‚ 2012 Cons Of Therapeutic Cloning Therapeutic cloning is the transfer of nuclear material isolated from a somatic cell into an enucleated oocyte in the goal of deriving embryonic cell lines with the same genome as the nuclear donor. Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) products have histological compatibility with the nuclear donor‚ which circumvents‚ in clinical applications‚ the use of immunosuppressive drugs with heavy side-effects. Therapeutic cloning is also often tied to ethical considerations

Advancements in genetic engineering‚ reproductive technologies‚ cloning‚ organ transplanting‚ and human experimentation are all causes of concern. The Human Genome Project‚ an incredible scientific undertaking determined to produce a map of the human DNA code‚ will tell us how each gene or group of genes function. With this map‚ scientists and doctors will be able to figure out how genes can malfunction and
