Should Research on Human Cloning be banned?

Hi,

According to me cloning is a boon both for human race and for animals. We are not actually interfering with gods creation but making world a better place to live in. As my friend has said that if we do human cloning we will be interfering with gods creation but it would be a boon for animals, in what terms can you actually distinguish animals from that of human, in terms of intelligence?

Cloning is the production of just another copy of the same individual with same character, then how can you say that it will be harmful for human race.

I totally disagree with what my friend Ruchi has pointed out in her second point that "today bad people are active and almost everybody is corrupt". World and the people living in it has not changed, it has remained the same. The difference is that earlier people were not aware about the corruption because media was not so advance.

As far as evil doing is concerned people who wants to misuse technology will go on doing their job but this does not mean that we will stop invention or research.

Hi, this is Suraj, we should oppose cloning, what if some criminal replace a person with his clone and play with his identity. I don't think in any way cloning is helpful. Nature have done every thing in a right way and at right place. Who are we to disturb that cycle.
Also cloning of scientists or other great personalities is a good idea because that degrade our generation.

This is Nowfil, in my vision,human being cloning is to be strictly banned.if it is developed and became a common thing like other science & technology inventions, value of human life will be reduced and chances of crimes will be increased. now it is impossible to catch osama-bin-laden just because of cloning. so better research on cloning is to be banned first to prevent this danger rather than curing after suffered

Yes, research on human cloning should be banned. It is totally unethical and will disrupt the way we interact with others. Humans are considered as the most developed social animal but we should not fool ourselves by thinking of us as the creator. we should not interfere with things that we cannot control.
Researching for the sake of development and actually implementing it as two very different issues. Researching is always good but i still strongly feel that human cloning would be unethical.

Even though today, the technology has a great impact because of man's creative, innovative ideas, there is an unseen power beyond which none of the hi-fi tech can go!.

God has given a beautiful life for every creature. So no one has the right to go against it. I agree researches have to be done to expose the mysteries of the world. But those researches should be such that they must not be a threat to a human life, instead should be like a candle.

Human cloning might give rise to a similar human as us. But who knows this new product can become an einstein or even a hitler!It is difficult to predict a normal human's mind in that case how can one predict an outcome of a research! Even scientifically speaking, the outcome of the cloning do not have stamina as the original one.

"CREATION" is a process done by the nature. So I think no one has to interfere in that.

Hi this is Bhanu. According to my view cloning is a process in which the appearance of the person can be copied but not the habits and abilities. What I mean to say is we can clone the great scientists like Einstein, newton and etc. But we cannot control the mindsets of the cloned persons. That is a cloned Einstein may become a terrorist, rather than becoming a scientist. In this case the pride of original Einstein gets damaged.

I agree with some of them who said that a research without implementation is of no use. So cloning should be banned.

HI. Cloning has both advantage and disadvantage. Its only depends on how we use. By cloning the damaged part is replaced. So many living beings get benefit, at the same time most of them used against people. So we banned only who is going to use the wrong way.

Everything has its own good and bad,when it comes for cloning it has it's own good because some failed parts of the body can be cloned and replaced...and it has its own bad sinse for being missusing the technology...

In my opinion, Cloning is just helped to human and Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy (or clone) of a human. The term is generally used to refer to artificial human cloning, which is the reproduction of human cells and tissue. It does not refer to the natural conception and delivery of identical twins. The possibility of person cloning has raised controversies. These ethical concerns have prompted several nations to pass laws regarding human cloning and its legality.
