#cloning

During this period, I became interested in how the new techniques of cloning and sequencing DNA could influence the study of genetics and I was an early and active proponent of the Human Genome Sequencing Project. ↗

The bill would ban human cloning, and any attempts at human cloning, for both reproductive purposes and medical research. Also forbidden is the importing of cloned embryos or products made from them. ↗

Cloning looks like a degrading of parenthood and a perversion of the right relation between parents and children. ↗

If one is seriously interested in preventing reproductive cloning, one must stop the process before it starts. ↗

In cloning, in contrast, reproduction is asexual - the cloned child is the product not of two but of one. ↗

Many other countries have already banned human cloning, and there are efforts at the UN to make such a ban universal. ↗

The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science, along with behaviour control, genetic engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers. ↗
