What do you think about the ethical aspects of cloning?

OpenStudy (javk):

Well over here you have to take a stand for what you believe in, What an examiner would want to see here is that you are clear in your choice and have a valid argument to support it. I usually take a middle stance... It is beneficial during scientific research and allows cloning of transgenic pigs etc. which would then be able to provide more transplant organs whereas, cloning a human embryo for research purposes and disposing of it later would be morally incorrect, as how do you decide which embryo you choose to let live etc.

OpenStudy (javk):

ok so...do you think its ok to do so?

OpenStudy (surryyy):

no i do not think its ok.

OpenStudy (javk):

do you have some reservations about it like for humans or for animals or not at all

OpenStudy (javk):
