I was gonna say nay

Theraputic cloning that can be used for medical reasons: Yay

Cloning for the hell of it so that ur exact genetic code lives on: Nay


Still, the tech should be researched just like we researched the atom bomb. Because even though the end result mightn't be all that good a concept, the tech that was developed and put to good use because of it was worth the effort. The same thing I dare say will happen with at least researching cloning (as long as it doesn't go anywhere near cloning full humans), as it will help our understanding of genetics immensely.

So yeah, Yay for theraputic/medicine, Nay for anything else.

I want to be cloned so that one of me can get the housework done, one can go to work and yet another could hang out with the kids, volunteer at the school, etc.

I'm pro-cloning but using the technology for reproduction is an absolute waste of resources. Like some one else said, hello...adoption? Cloning should be used to kill diseases, fix paralysis, and help me build an army to conquer the world. The couple shouldn't raise this kid, I need him as solider alpha zero one
