The latest development in Cloning has drawn global attention.


1) i think cloning is seen differently depending on who views it. A scientist would say its a great thing, a great progress in technology because it might serve as a new, unusual but perhaps efficacious treatment for infertility but someone else like a priest would say its unethical to make a carbon copy out of something or someone.Its going against nature. cloning would prove to be beneficialbecause it may someday be possible to reverse the aging process or reverse heart attacks.Im sure you must have heard about Dolly, the worlds first cloned sheep.

They decided to clone dolly because studies showed that she had a lung disease and that cloning would somehow be able to reverse it. So theres a living example of it being a success, because dolly lived for a more number of years. However to certain stonge peoples eyes its unacceptable. I mean there would be a probability of the risk of abuse of the technology. what would Hitler have done with cloning technology if it was available in the 1940s? Cloning will create designer children which is actually moving against nature. We shouldnt play with what god created. I remember a particular sentence from the movie jurassic park where the person who visited the park said ' God creates dinosaurs. God destroys dinosaurs. God creates man. Man destroys God. Man creates dinosaurs...' Dont play with something nature chose to do because that would just result in more chaos.

Ithink in conclusion everything has its pros and cons and everyone would have a different idea about something. But what i feel is that the pros of cloning would outwit the cons because of ever changing technology and the mindsets of people.
