STOP! Before you vote , take a moment to think : What can possibly be wrong with voting for the stem cell research ? Well I’m about to inform you on some statements that you might not have thought about and give you a better insight of what cloning will do to our society .
It has been taken to account that the controversial topic of therapeutic and reproductive cloning research of all animals and humans is being debated on whether to vote for or against stem cell research. Based on what was researched on you; you yourself is having a hard time with this topic. If you don’t mind, I would like to give you my perspective on the topic. Hopefully you will consider what I am about to say ,when it comes to finding your conclusion on stem cell research. In short , why would we want to bring more human versions of already existing humans ? There already is a lot of humans on earth , yet they want to create more of the same ones. In the article “ President Bush Call to Back Human Cloning Ban” , it states , on page 3, paragraph 16 , “ This is a diverse coalition, united by a result commitment to prove that cloning and exploitation of human beings .” There already are a lot of humans , we are overpopulating . Although, some may say that cloning is a second chance like in the article, “ All the Reasons to Clone Human Beings” , it states , on page 1, paragraph 3 , “ The current options for infertile couples are painful, expensive, and heartbreaking.. Cloning has the potential to change
Some people actually say that we can benefit from cloning. Scientists think that we can clone “geniuses” and advance in society (Utah Genetics). This brings up a very good point. What if we can clone 5 Albert Einsteins?! What if we clone all of the smartest minds to ever exist. Can we cure cancer? I think we can! Maybe we can even stop ebola. Lots of people are seriously thinking about this and how beneficial it would be. But some people can take this out of hand. Some scientists are considering making “human farms” where clones are made and their only purpose is to kill them and take their organs to sell. This is why cloning should not be easily accessible. Some freaky scientists are actually considering this idea. We need to be smarter, we need to be consistent , and we need to keep an eye out for these crazy scientists. And God knows what other crazy idea they have inside their heads. But many people think that cloning can be beneficial to society if it is used
According to Gary Wickman, Human cloning can give rise to certain medical issues. Technically, human gene grows older with age. It’s feared that the cloned individual would retain the age of the donor’s genes. Imagine what will happen if a 40 year old gene is manifested into a newborn baby (Wickman, 2017). The health risks involved with human cloning is something that cannot be sidelined on all accounts. There is a possibility that the cloned individual might carry certain abnormalities, and may die sooner than the standard life expectancy.
The most talk about topic today is cloning and if it really matters to us or if we shouldn't do it because there is no meaning to it. Well there is two different types of cloning there is therapeutic that one is when you create a clone outside of a embryo. The other which is reproductive cloning that type of cloning is the one I'm really against for because a lot comes with it. For example in the Article “ Here Kitty-Kitty-Kitty-Kitty” by Carolyn Said in San Francisco Chronicle, April 15, 2004 it quotes that “ It took 87 tries to produce CC, for example, Kraemer said”. It took 87 tries thats a lot of tries and either the test tube did not carry the egg correctly or the implantation wasn't as strong. My point is that cloning is a big
Human embryonic stem cell research has been a hot debate for many years and with good reason. Many people believe that by performing this type of research we are violating the right to human life. In his article, Jim Eckman makes a compelling argument, but fails to really make any convincing arguments about why the negatives outweigh the medical benefits that stem cell research possesses and so for that I disagree with him.
If the government does not adequately fund research on stem cells, it makes sense that large amounts of discoveries would be made. It is in the government's best interest to represent the country as a whole, which would not be possible by taking one specific side of the ethical debate. Certainly, there are major advantages, as well as major issues, with stem cell research, but the most critical area of dispute comes with the idea of reproductive cloning through stem
There should be no room to clone any human being nor animal. There is so much more to find out about our world then to test the non-achieved and inefficient process of cloning. Therefore I am against any type of cloning, whether therapeutic or reproductive. Andy vidak I write to you this letter, to give you a better understanding of why funding for cloning would set us back as a society. Genuinely I care about our future because I want our generation to be known as the one who did brilliant things. The excuse that cloning can potentially result in medical breakthrough is unacceptable because, like president George W. Bush said in his 2002 speech about human cloning, “We can pursue medical research with a clear sense of moral purpose.” (Office of the Press Secretary par. 12). Research cloning would contradict the most underlying principle of medical ethics, that no human life should be exploited for the convenience of another. For that reason I stand by
“Embryonic stem cell research will prolong life, improve life, and give hope for life to millions of people,” said politician Jim Ramstad. This is a very powerful statement, and a very accurate statement. The solution to curing many diseases is just around the corner because of the advancements in embryonic stem cell research. The much needed support of society can speed up the progression of this research so lives can start to be saved. Embryonic stem cell research should be pursued because it has the potential to help or even cure many diseases, shows more promise than adult stem cells, and is morally ethical.
Dear, Governor Jerry Brown, I am writing to to you because I have noticed a new bill come up and it's about cloning. I believe that we should not pass this bill, we should stop it, and it shouldn't have became a bill in the first place. I think we should stop funding cloning and should stop treating it like it's the right thing to do. We should not as a state, pass this law. Why? Well because thats a waste of taxpayer money. We can fund other nessicasity, like better school and education. We can fund things that are relevant instead of something that barely anyone can afford. Cloning is useless and the only good thing about it, is that we can learn more science from it. Another reason why you should not pass it, the scientist can use it the wrong way. The scientist who work on cloning can make some sort of superhuman or super animal with hybrid genetics, and where they are so superior we can't defeat it, and there goes the worlds then we are in a apocalypse. And for my last reason on why you should not pass this bill, it's not life like, if something's passes away then it passes away, no need to bring it back, and it may even suffer more after it does come back.
Abortion, gay marriage, and illegal immigration are all hot button topics currently being faced by Americans. As ardently as each side defends their stance on a controversial issue, an opposing side fights with equal diligence for the beliefs they feel should be valued by our nation. Perhaps nowhere is this battle more heated than in the fight over stem cell research. While supporters of this new field of science tout it’s potential to cure everything from blindness to paralysis, those against stem cell science liken the procedures used by scientists to murder. It is my intention to bring to light the positive benefits of stem cell research as well as counter the claims used by many Pro-life groups who believe the scientists driving this
Do you care about the human body? Would you save somebody’s life or stop a disease from spreading? Stem cell research is a topic almost everybody in the world has an opinion on. I happen to be an admirer of the stem cell research; I personally think it is an important topic to speak on. The benefits of stem cell research have such a great outcome that they outweigh the ethical issues.
The first reason why cloning humans should be a thing is because of the supply of organs for the organ transplants that people need. In the article
When looked up on Google i hear well spoken thoughts on you. After reading your background and what made you into who you are today made me realize that you are a well spoken person. This letter is in regards of passing a bill on cloning. Cloning is when person is basically replicated. This is not always the case because the experiment can also be done to animals. Pet owners choose to pay extra money to buy a pet that will be categorized as in the “superior breed”. I understand that you are a businesswoman and make decisions that will not only have an effect on you but the U.S. I hope that you take this into consideration and let my words help make a positive impact to the communities throughout the U.S.
The cloning of humans is now very close to reality, thanks to the historic scientific breakthrough of Dr. Ian Wilmut and his colleagues in the UK. This possibility is one of incredible potential benefit for all of us. Unfortunately the initial debate on this issue has been dominated by misleading, sensationalized accounts in the news media and negative emotional reactions derived from inaccurate science fiction. Much of the negativity about human cloning is based simply on the breathtaking novelty of the concept rather than on any real undesirable consequences. On balance, human cloning would have overwhelming advantages if regulated in a reasonable way. A comprehensive ban on human cloning by a misinformed public would be a sorry
Another reason why I feel cloning humans should be illegal is because it is very unsafe to attempt cloning a human without risking physical safety of the clones and the women who bear them. Trying to clone humans is not worth risking the safety of these women and the clones themselves. The clone's surrogate mother faces potentially fatal risks from carrying clones that are usually abnormally large at birth. More than 95 percent of cloning attempts fail, and the ones that do not fail, as well as surrogate mothers who carry the clones, suffer painful diseases and deformities to produce each ‘successful’ clone. In recent studies with animals, the surrogate mother is
Beginning with the moral argument, one must understand reproductive freedom. Most cloning activists say that reproduction, or the lack there of, is a natural freedom given to people (C). Restricting human cloning would be a violation of that right. Just as people can choose not to reproduce using contraception, abortion, or abstinence, people should be allowed to use all means possible within their ability to reproduce, such as through cloning and in vitro fertilization (C). Cloning is the application of this right specifically (C). Another benefit of cloning is the ability to clone someone who has died to console those who are grieving over their lost loved one or to clone the DNA of a person that was known for his of her greatness. Scientists would be able to recreate these people in a new environment (C). A clone's parent may have come from
