Is Reproductive Cloning of Humans feasible or necessary? Group 1C-beta

What is reproductive cloning? Making a genetically identical individual Not therapeutic cloning Naturally – identical twins Source -> Newcastle University Cloned embryos

Pros Like any other research Is God really against it? Nature x nurture Perfect babies Infertile parents Therapeutic purposes

Cons Unsafe technology Playing God Complicating genetic & social relationships Eugenics IVF, adoption available Child treated as a donor object

Feasible or necessary? Investment of time & research needed Not particularly necessary – always other options available But lower costs than some options Currently banned in most countries Never ending ethical issues
