Cloning is a universal subject, with universal opinions

General Forms of Cloning

Embryo Cloning a medical technique
which produces identical twins or triplets
It duplicates the process that nature uses to produce twins or triplets
Very limited experimentation has been done on humans.

Therapeutic Cloning Same process as creating
an adult clone 14 days the “pre-embryo”
is killed allowing scientists to harvest stem cells
Stem cells can then be encouraged to grow into a kidney, liver, or some other organ.

Adult DNA Cloning what “Dolly” the sheep was created
using. It is also what scientists are trying to
use to clone a human.

Knowledge Issues How does reason and ethics
intertwine with morality? How can culture/religion
determine what we perceive as life and humanity?
How can emotions affect what we believe to be morally wrong?
![Page 9: Human Cloning and genetic manipulation - the ethical concerns raised](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816415550346895dd5c858/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Linking Questions How does human cloning
and human experimentation throughout the years change our view on ethics and morality?
How do different religions perceive life?
To what extent can human sciences relate to moral wrongdoing?

Claim Reason and ethics can cause us to more
thoroughly understand a situation, thus making a better decision morally in the end
Counter-Claim Reason and ethics can cause us to over think
a situation, thus making a decision not your own morals but other alternatives/morals that may have some to mind.

ClaimThe story of someone mentally stable with a non-bias view on things their able to think on both sides distinguish right from wrong properly make a better decision on their own views
and not on others
![Page 14: Human Cloning and genetic manipulation - the ethical concerns raised](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816415550346895dd5c858/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Counter-ClaimA story of someone indecisive and always changing their opinion not going with their own opinion but others not able to stick with a single view easily persuaded by the more “popular” view they may come up with a solution but
overthink and believe that they chose the incorrect one and change it
Ex. During tests we may chose an answer but think its incorrect so we change it and find out later that the original answer was right.

Claim Religion can dictate what we may
perceive as life and humanity
Counter-Claim Our personal beliefs may differ from what
our Religion commonly perceives as humanity.

Linking question
How do different religions perceive life?
![Page 18: Human Cloning and genetic manipulation - the ethical concerns raised](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816415550346895dd5c858/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
ClaimThe Christian stance on cloning, taken by many conservatives life begins at conception playing god therapeutic cloning is equal to the killing of a
life therapeutic cloning destroys the pre-embryo and utilize the stem cells is counter-saving lives
![Page 19: Human Cloning and genetic manipulation - the ethical concerns raised](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816415550346895dd5c858/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Counter-ClaimSenator Orrin Hatch, a conservative Republican is pro life his decision was NOT a close
call despite religious/cultural background
tiny clusters of cells cannot be equated with human life
in favor of therapeutic cloning
cloning can benefit humanity as a whole

How can emotions affect what we believe to be morally wrong?

Claim Emotions can overtake out judgment on
morality
Counter-Claim Emotions may play a role in what we
believe to be morally wrong, but ethics play a more vital role in what we believe to be morally wrong

Linking Question To what extent can human sciences
relate to moral wrongdoing?

one sense of hopelessness desperation and lack of acceptance results of desperation lead to adult cloning
in hopes of reviving said loved one Those results may not be what is expected

Human cloning is unreasonable and just creates more issues then solutions.
