I clone my own pigrats in my basement and enhance them with massive sized genitals and extra bio mechanic suits. Some times I just take rats and tape spoons and others metal pieces to their bodies and take them into my cloner alien. I love my cloner alien, she is teh hotness. Soon my creations will fill your head space and molest your body to the upmost level. I aim to please baby!!!!

the alleged mother/clonee of the alleged child/clone is said to have refused the testing since somebody decided they would charge her with child abuse of some sort (based on the lack of real knowledge of how a cloned child might turn out). this is their reasoning reported in our local newspapers.
bill hicks, many are in agreement with you. i'd like to see a future of people who think of life in many terms, not just their specialty.

aye thats what ive heard too jupitah
id be interested to see what others on here do think of the ethics relating to cloning.
its hardly a taboo, except that it upsets the church, and of course, the risks involved with the technology being new.
how would it feel to be a clone? i dont think the idea of implanting memory into an adult clone is going to be achieved as soon as clonaid hopes (you know, for the purpose of achieving a sort of 'immortality')
but yes until then, i wonder what it would be like. to be made of the same stuff, but to experience life again from scratch, and hence be a different person. would there be uncanny similarites?

well, i have no problems with cloning as soon as the technology reaches the point where the chances of birth defects are equal to that of "natural" conception and artificial insemination. i don't think learning from my mother that i was cloned would be much different from learning that i was born of annonymous donated sperm.
it's interesting that the process would sort of delay the gene shuffle of sexual reproduction that is so prominant in evolution. in that way i don't think it would be good to use a lot of cloning, but rather reserve it for those who are sterile, or those with special religious interests. i don't think that would be a problem though, as most people are going to continue having children by sex.

yeah, that is the obvious and likely scenerio. even still, it's foolish to pretend you know something you don't. i just keep in mind the very real possibilities.
