i am still uncertain about it but here are my pros & cons for it.
pros:
if successful cloning of organs will help in transplants and matching organ donor types. it will be a major step to combat many diseases. the common myth about cloning is that we will have a replica of ourself. No!! cloning doesn't mean i have a duplicate 'me'. my clone will be different in many ways but important thing is we will have similar blood types and Rh factors, basically similar genetics. so we will always have a potential donor in our lifeπ. it also helps many women to become mothers. we have been doing plant cloning for so long. growing another plant from the cut of another plant isa type of plant cloning.
cons:
but is it ethical? should we tamper with god's creation? wouldn't it be misused? how many would be comfortable with the idea of someone very similar to us. will the donation of cord blood (for stem cell research) be used in a good way? what if our clone is genetic mutant? is asexual reproduction ethical?
