nment does not have the right to interfere in matter so sacred as baring a child. Do infertile parents not have the same right of having a natural child do healthy parents? There are many more benefits, besides those of infertile parents, which could come from cloning. Imagine you had a loved one who desperately needed a bone marrow transplant. No donor could be found and the only hope is to clone his or her own bone marrow. Does that justify cloning and the funding of its research and development? Not only bone marrow could be cloned, but also other organs could be cloned in the future if research is further funded. The good thing about cloning your own organs is that there would be no rejection drugs needed because it would be your natural organ. As it stands now we do not have the technology to clone organs, but with further funding provided through federal money this technology could be in our near future. Some scientists believe that cloning cells is the answer to many medical problems such as cancer, Alzheimer disease, and many other cell diteeriating diseases. There are so many medical areas that could be helped through this technology it is imperative that we appropriate research time and money. If the United States and its people want to be closed minded on cloning issues then we will be far behind in medical technology. We will miss out on a large market in the medical field if we do not take action now. As it stands now many scientists predict that there will be a cloned human inside the next year. Recently at a four-hour conference in Rome a international team of scientists promised that they would produce a cloned human within the next year. They declared that nothing could stop the creation of human being by the methods that they have discovered. They claim that the clones would be unique individual not photocopies of individuals. Many people were objecting to their proposition because they said that it wo...
