So, I have a moment, figured I would post an opinion. This is not my opinion, but the opinion that I feel the Federal government has no choice but to adopt.
"We, as a nation, can not condone cloning of human subjects at this time. There are not only several ethical and moral debates sparked by this, but several scientific problems that arise. We can continue our support of the research into cloning, the research into genetic drift and anomolies introduced, the research into cloning organs, and the research into geneticly engineering human subjects, but at this time... this is a terrible force, a genie of such awesome power, that we dare not endorse this technology until we are fully prepared to get what we wished for."
Far as I'm concerned... the biggest problem right now is, who's to say I can't clone you? You don't have a patent on your genetic code. And I don't have to steal it from you, you can just visit my house. We've shown that we can barely promote the technology that is the Internet without slapping a banner ad on it. I'd hate to see of the new and creative ways marketing can ruin the idea of cloning.
