Human cloning is an issue that has been debated and researched extensively. Since the first successful cloning attempt was made on Dolly the sheep, a new concept in ethics has been established. This new concept could revolutionize the world while at the same time some fear the negative possibilities. The successful cloning of Dolly has made the cloning issue a living concern; Dolly’s existence forces us to consider the ethics of the situation because it challenges the assertion that cloning is impossible or immoral. Cloning is a valid subject for ethical debate as it cruises the very cutting edge of scientific discovery while dancing dangerously close to interfering with the natural creation and destruction of human life. The fact that artificial procreation is almost at the tip of our fingers, excites some, while at the same time installs fear in others. The effects human cloning could have on an individual’s life are dramatic. Diseases, life threatening accidents, and all other illnesses could become a non-issue, if cloning was perfected and then legalized; life without these entities would dramatically change. The thought that a human might possess the capacity of something so powerful, is so precious it must be approached with serious thought. The possibilities human cloning could reveal seem to be endless; from an evil scientist abusing these powers, to the discovery of the cure to cancer; this variance shows the uncertainty in how cloning would truly affect our society.
