To Clone or Not to Clone - Therein Lies the Question

Soon, you will be able to clone yourself, many religious folks maybe appalled by this, but I wouldn't be if I were you, it is a good thing and the science available from such things will increase life expectancy and help us stay young and fulfilled, in a youth like fashion for 100s of years.

Before passing judgment or accepting the party-line with your decision of whether cloning is good or bad - may I be so bold as to recommend a book to you that explains what cloning is and what the potential is, perhaps you might dump your perception for now and consider all this? The book is:

"In His Image - The Cloning of Man" by David Rorvik - 1978.

The first part of this book dives deep into the morality issues of cloning, the religious barriers of society and the reality of what will soon be possible. Part II of this book describes the exact methods as to how cloning works and the methods used to create this future destiny and advances in science and medicine.

Indeed cloning has been in the news quite a bit lately in fact an article in USA Today 11-12-2007: Ban human clones or expect them soon, U.N. says;

Failure to outlaw reproductive cloning means it is just a matter of time until cloned individuals share the planet," said Brendan Tobin, a human rights lawyer who co-authored the report.

And so what if they do, what if human scientists become their own god to a very limited degree and start cloning their own? Clones are people too, they will be humans, so what is the problem? Please think hard on this, and quoting scripture, well that is simply not a viable reason to prevent cloning, you are going to have to do better than that.
