    Clonig Issues....

    The Issue
    Scientists using cloned human embryos for research are on the verge of a medical breakthrough.

    The Debate
    "It's really very exciting," says lab head Gregory Washington. "Until now, we've kept very quiet, to avoid being targeted by lunatic fringe groups who for some reason think it's wrong to clone human embryos. It's too early to promise anything, but we hope that one day we will have genetic cures for a whole range of debilitating illnesses. I certainly hope the government will support our work."

    This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

        @ Ras' pathetic understanding of medicine.

        Cloning embryoes is not the same as cloning human beings.

          Look at how hard it was to make a cloned mouse or sheep that was a viable organism. Like Dolly, they all die young and have strange health problems.

            When did Rasputin originally claim to be cloning humans, anyway?

              Somewhere in the Azan/FCL RP threads, claiming to have armies of cloned humans or something silly like that.

                  "And Sheep? His heart and spirit were shattered into many pieces at his death. To this day, many of us have a little of him in us - to our loss."

                  In this context, "many of us" is a not-so-backhanded reference to Lazerus' genejacks.

                    Not that it matters any. A clone grows as fast as any regular humans, so it doesn't help. Unless, of course, he got a birth rate problem...

                          Life begins at birth, and even then they're hardly human.
                          What are your views on experimentation on humans?

                              Depends what experimentation you referring to, but basically if it going to save lives i all for it,, the life of a few for the life of many so to speak....
