Human Cloning Will Be Possible In 50 Years: Nobel Winning Scientist

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

Parents who lose children in accidents may be able to clone “copies” to replace them within 50 years, a British scientist who won this year’s Nobel prize for medicine has predicted.
Sir John Gurdon, whose work cloning frogs in the 1950s and 60s led to the later creation of Dolly the sheep by Edinburgh scientists in 1996, said that progression to human cloning could happen within half a century.
Although any attempt to clone an entire human would raise a host of complex ethical issues, the biologist claimed people would soon overcome their concerns if the technique became medically useful.
 
 
Cloning human beings is unethical.  Will they have a soul?   Would they die?  They probably would, like any machine they get old too i suppose.  There are some upsides to it though.  Exact copies of organs for example could save your life.  But other than that, cloning is an abomination.  We have enough humans on earth as it is.  ~Ophelia

      Are people really so stupid as to believe making a clone of their dead child is going to give them another life. The clone would be the same as an identical twin. The same thing would happen to it as with Dolly the sheep.

      “Would they die?”The clones live the same amount of time as when the dna sample was taken, because cells lose repetitions of dna that create new cells every time a new cell is created. If the sponsor is old, the clone will die all the sooner.

      “Will they have a soul?” When you can define exactly what a soul is to see if a clone would have one, get back to us. :wink:
