There's a word for that, you know.
Again, I don't think anyone is seriously considering a race of fully funcional beings to service us but I'll play along anyway; what is that word?

because people don't have enough restraint to not abuse/warp the whole thing.

somebody,somewhere will find someway to try and make money from etc.


i've got no problem with cloning cells/organs etc for medical purposes


someone has kidney failure ....... clone a new one. They won't even have to worry about rejection.


you could clone just about anything but the brain. The brain wouldn't contain all the learned stuff from their life.

There'd be conversations like this:

Doug: "Hey Tim, my Jessica Simpson flipped again, can I borrow yours?

Tim: "No way. The last time I let you borrow my Lohan, you brought her back lookin all skinny and cracked out and shit."

Doug: "Dude, that wasn't my fault. Me and Joey left her alone with his Hilton for 5 min. to make a beer run........ I didn't know."

Tim: "Exactly. Forget it, dude, I just got her back from being detailed. Call Jim, he just got a new Chabert and I think he still has his old Spears lying around."

Doug: "Ewwww".

Yes, they will. Wouldn't you prefer it happen here in the US where lots of interest groups will inject at least a modicum of morality into the whole affair?

Seriously, you cannot uninvent something. Even if cloning is banned in the US people will just go to Switzerland or wherever it is available to get it done.

Good to know that you are completely sure that everything is stored in the brain.

I'm wondering if Alzheimer's isn't nature's answer to our medical ability to live longer than she meant for us to.

Are you really using the slippery slope argument? Does that mean you have no problem with the cloning of individual organs?

Just because it's the center of the nervous system doesn't mean that's where your thoughts are happening. All I'm saying is that I'm not so arrogant that I assume I *KNOW*.

The assumptions that I believe is faulty is that the only pupose for cloning is to harvest parts or duplicate a person. I think loong term it holds the potential for genetically more resilent people that would be independent and not the duplicate of others.
