Cloning Essay

As soon as you mention the word cloning, you are most likely to ignite a debate. This is because people are greatly divided on whether it?s good or bad. A way to reach a conclusion is to look at cloning from ethical, risk, and religious perspectives. The reality is, cloning is unethical, very risky, and irreligious.

An argument could be put forth that curing someone is interfering with God?s plan. My reply to that would be that it is not because curing someone is far more different that creating a new life and tampering with the way god created life. We should try to stick with God?s rules and his natural order instead of trying to make God?s rules. If we do interfere with this, we?ll interfere with natural evolution. (http://elibrary.bigchalk.com) If we interfere with natural evolution than who knows what other problems might occur? Cloning is a big step for the future, and everyone who defends cloning is too caught up with this new process of making new life, and not thinking about the consequences. Some of you don?t know that killer bees were created by scientists. These scientists were too caught up with the bees, trying to make
