just watch. if the cloning pulls through. corporation will use it for profit more than good uses. and imagine they get a hand on your dna and clone you.

the outcome is more devastating than you can imagine. that is why cloning is a heat debate right now

120% wrong. My DNA belongs to me, just as my medical records belong to me. In order to conduct a study, even a chart review, I have to get consent from the patient, code the information so it can be linked to any particular patient, etc... there are numerous safeguards for patients.

Whoops I didn't read the explanation. I would support it if there was a 100% assurance of it being used for good and not being taken any further. It would end up being used for other purposes, and the all of the advances used for good usually also have the possibility to be manipulated for other purposes. I'm not the most well informed about this, but the whole idea kind of freaks me out.

I am on the fence on this one. I can't decide whether it is a good thing or not ...... even with the cortex eliminated, I still have the feeling that if you have a body, then you have a human life, regardless of whether it has the higher functions to which Ten refers ..... On the other hand, I also believe that women should have the choice on terminations, so how I can have those two opposing beliefs simulatneously I am not sure ....

I need to think more about this .....
