But what they don't realize is that for hundreds of years, humankind has been controlling nature with the domestication of plants and animals, which is a violation of the natural order of things as God has put them here on earth. Another point that those against cloning seem to agree on is the potential of physical harm put upon those involved with the process. First, Dolly was the only success out of 277 attempts. With humans, there is the risk of hormonal mutations, multiple miscarriages, and possibly developmental deformities in the child, and no one knows how many attempts it will take until a clone is finally "born". But as with all pregnancies, the prospective parents are allowed to carry the baby to term, because of the parent's right to reproductive freedom. But the aspect of physical harm is not a liable one, because there is no way for us to know if the child will go through any kind of harm until human cloning is attempted (Report/Recommendations of the NBAC). One of the basic fears associated with cloning is eugenics, basically an attempt to improve the human race. These fears are based on the visions that one man will develop the "master race" of people in order to rule the world, as Hitler did with Germany during WWII, that people would clone those considered "perfect" to make our society better, and this fear is reinforced through many of the comic books, films, and comic books circulating throughout the world.

The reasons why people are for the thought of cloning are many. They include: recovering a loved one; treating infertility; ...
