se it, then any newly born human bodies would have no forebrain therefore no "semblance of consciousness... thus it would be perfectly legal to keep them 'alive' as a source of organs." But this would further demean the value of humanity to purposely create a "deformed and dying quasi-human life", even if it would be to try and save another being. Statistics show that during the 'Dolly' process, from 277 eggs, several deformed fetuses were produced and only one egg progressed normally. That is a 1/277 chance of "success" and with the technology still in its infancy, unacceptably high risks of death or gross defects can be expected in new infants. We cannot take this morally unacceptable chance to create monsters.Human cloning poses a threat to both current and future generations. Surely over the years that mankind has walked the earth, natural changes in our autonomy have allowed us to become the beings we are. But what would happen to the next generation and the ones to follow if humans were to be cloned? Will they be able to adapt to the natural environment? How can our babies adapt if they were born to be exactly like us, with the same diseases and traits that we carry? Cloning will erase our natural defense check against birth defects because, defect genes are recessive requiring both parents to carry the gene to pass the disease but through a sole parent, the genes would be transmitted unmitigated. If we allow this depletion of genetic diversity to occur, we will most definitely be "sowing the seeds of our destruction," since it is this diversity that ensures our existence in this world by passing on essential characteristics to make us less susceptible to diseases.Groups supporting human cloning see this as a medical breakthrough. But is dissecting a manmade headless mutant then ripping its organs out for a supposed life saving operation an acceptable approach? Is that a real ethical procedure, to give life to a so-called human on...
