Human Cloning Should Be Banned - 1852 Words

Cloning is the idea of taking genetic information from one living thing to create an identical copy also known as a clone. Cloning has been around for years, whether farmers used it to produce more crops or when botanists wanted to create a wider variety of plants. However, human cloning was not studied until the success of creating the first mammal clone. Human cloning has been a debatable topic for the public and scientists because of its dangers, but cloning has shown scientists benefits of cloning as well.

Which supports human cloning and shows cloning ca n be used for a variety of situations. It also creates children for same sex marriage or just another option for any family or an adult that wants to create a family. Cloning also creates a way to find a way to prevent genetic diseases in children while they are in the womb or immediately after birth. If a child is bound to receive a genetic disease from one side of the family, parents usually meet with doctors to help find a way for the child to live with the disease. However, with scientist who have experimented and practiced human cloning, the scientist would then be able to clone a healthy organ or skin for the child with a genetic disease. This would mean that the child would most likely live a better life because he or she would not live in a hospital and would be able to do things that every child does. In the article The Coming of the Clones the author claims that cloning â€Å"gives Snider 3 adults the opportunity to have what is called the ultimate ‘single-parent’ child† (The Coming of the Clones 1).
