CLONING IS THE SOLUTION TO OUR HEALTH PROBLEMS
Since human beings have successfully cloned there have been endless discussions
about whether we should use it or not.
There are three main reasons to put forward cloning. As far as I can see the first
advantage of cloning is the fact that parents who have lost their child in an accident or
the child has simply passed away would be able to clone him or her. They would give
him the same physical appearance, the same look and behavior.
Secondly I think it is very important that we would be able to clone human organs so
there wouldn’t be so many people dead because their transplantation is late.
Finally, we could make our child look exactly like we wanted him to look like and we
could give him or her all the positive things that maybe we don’t have.
I personally am not in favor of these things. I think that cloning is a very risky thing to do.
We might just ask ourselves what about the feelings of a clone. Is he ever going to be
accepted or not?
The second thing is that maybe a person will never be happy and satisfied with his life
knowing that he’s a clone.
In addition, we might think about the environment a clone would live in, about his
behavior, acts and thinking and maybe how he would affect us?
To sum up, looking at all the facts for and against I personally think it’s not a good thing
for neither of us, our children or our health. It’s even an additional problem. We should
be able to live our life normally and be satisfied with how we are.

CLONING IS THE SOLUTION TO OUR HEALTH PROBLEMS
Since the middle of the 20th century there have been endless discussions about whether
cloning should or should not be used as the solution to our health problems.
There have been many arguments for cloning. The first is that we could replicate organs
that could be used like transplants. The second advantage is that if we start cloning we
will be able to produce viruses and bacteria for research and making vaccines.
In spite of all that, cloning is against God’s laws and science should not interfere with
such serious matters. Furthermore, such actions are questioning ethical and moral
standards. Finally, we must ask ourselves, if we could clone organs and some species,
how soon would we start cloning humans. How far should experiments like this go?!
To sum up, cloning can bring a lot of good in this world and maybe even a solution to our
health problems, but there are various moral borders which bring a benefit of a doubt
considering the welfare of this issue. In my opinion cloning of organs and tissues is very
helpful, but I also feel that we must stop before we get to the point when we start cloning
human beings. I think this is a very sensitive problem and it should be taken care of with
caution.
