Cloning

The cloning of human beings should no be allowed to happen to even test in this world because the risks out benefit the gains by doing this.

Dolly the sheep was the first cloned sheep, yes, but there were 200 some imperfect "dolly's" before the one we knew as Dolly was created.

To create life then kill it so it can save the life of someone dying. Cloning humans for these reasons are therefore ridiculous. The person dying would pay a very generous amount of money to make a test-tube twin of him/her self to use just for the organs defies what life is. The basic principals of life are for us to be free, able to live and eat, and be able to reproduce. These clones would basically be new-aged "toys" for humans. Creating a new class of people, the cloned. As of diversity already doesn't have its own problems.
