Do you agree with cloning eg of sheep or cows?

Question

Reasons why you agree or disagree.x

Answer 1

I am neutral to cloning of animals. I am more interested in the ability to clone organs like the heart and kidney.

Answer 2

No, because In the pursuit of immortality, the line between science and science fiction is becoming harder and harder to distinguish. Cloning is one such example. The idea is to clone, or reproduce, an identical body of an individual by cell and gene manipulation. Then, as the body parts disease or fail, a new organ can be taken from the clone and transplanted, much as a broken part in a car is replaced by a new spare part. Some scientists claim that theoretically there is no limit to what could be done by cloning.

Carrying matters one step further is the process called cryonics. When a person dies, explain the proponents, the body can be frozen to preserve it until the time that a cure is found for what is incurable today. Then the body can be thawed, reanimated, and restored—hopefully to a longer, happier life.

In view of such efforts and the expenditure of countless millions of dollars in research, what has been the outcome? Are we any closer to breaking free from the yoke of death than were all those thousands of millions of people who lived and died before us?

Answer 3

No, I think its wrong, because  its interfering with nature. Scientists only do it because they can. There is no real benefit to humans by doing this. Its too expensive, and it doesn't solve the world food shortage, stop the wars or cure cancer, so whats the point?
