The article 'Scientists Hopeful About Cloning' (Randolph Schmid, 2001) talks about the recent developments made towards cloning a human embryo. Researchers were able to grow the embryo to six cells before it stopped developing. The clone, however, wasn't able to produce stem cells. Which could be ...

Human Cloning: An issue of Ethics vs. Medical/Technological Advances Human cloning offers medical benefits, as well as other possible technological advances in many areas of science, however, the ethical issues are far greater than these benefits. I fully support cloning in any other ...

Cloning is Ethically and Morally WrongHitler wanted to create a perfect race. If cloning were a possibility during his rein, would he have succeeded? The idea of genetically duplicating a dictator is not new. In Ira Levin's 1976 book, The Boys from Brazil an ex-Nazi bred a generation of Hitler Youth...

To Ban or Not To Ban?Cloning is a fascinating and very new technological break-through us humans have discovered. The first mammal to be successfully cloned was the sheep "Dolly." This sheep signified the beginning of many new medical discoveries about how DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) works. Many ...

"Human life is a creation, not a commodity, and should not be used as research material for reckless experiments," quoted George Bush. Clearly, the topic of cloning presents much controversy in the United States. Many believe immediate action should be taken to create nationwide cloning ba...

Human Cloning Human cloning The billions of cells that presently make up a human being descend from one single cell, the fertilized egg. Today, there is a new way of creating life, cloning. Cloning can mean anything from the growing of healthy cell tissue to replacing damaged tissue in th...
