Now that the process has been familiarized, it is easy to see that there are many places where errors can occur. We are nowhere near as good as nature in creating life, and the high failure rate constitutes most of the debate against cloning.
The most controversial use of cloning is its genetic research, which has been outlawed in many places around the world. The process is the same as above, but you just make sure you have a couple cells from the parents of the child to be cloned – An egg from the mother, and cells from the father. Since there are many accidents and the experiment is usually aborted before completion, this is a very unsupported use for cloning. Most people who are opposed to abortion are opposed to reproductive cloning saying, "Yes to the human treatment of animals. No to the animalistic treatment of humans."("America's next ethical war..." 1) Most of the debate is between differences of opinion – "Seeing human life in terms of its intrinsic value, or in terms of its utilitarian value."("America's next ethical war..." 1) Meaning, there is a debate between scientists, and the average person about the value of human life. Just recently, the British Medical Association announced their plan t!
o launch a human cloning clinic, which will be able to clone children for infertile couples within an 18 month time period ("Scientists plan human cloning..." 315). Dr Zavos, a biologist at the University of Kentucky, has joined with Italian reproductive specialist Dr Antinori to gain media attention with postmenopausal women giving birth to a child at the age of 65 ("Scientists plan human cloning...").
