Human Cloning
Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of an existing, or previously existing, human being or growing clone tissue from that individual.
Human cloning can be both - creation of a person identical to that of person who donated the DNA. This is called reproductive cloning. Another form is the therapeutic cloning to provide replacement organs, or tissue for people who have had theirs damaged.
In many countries, complete human cloning i.e. the reproductive cloning is banned whereas many private sientific labs have claimed to clone a human without disclosing the details.
What are your views ? Should human cloning be allowed ? How will it affect if cloning is allowed ?

Re: Human Cloning
as long as a new being is not created and there is no playing with the rule of life and death ... cloning is ok.
Though personally i am against any kind of cloning

Re: Human Cloning
I dont support the full human cloning. All the things are fine but somethings should be left for nature.

How is Human Clone made ?
A human clone is made by taking a nucleus or DNA from a cell, like a skin cell, and injecting it into a human egg cell stripped clean of its genetic material.
The human egg begins to divide and it soon becomes an embryo.
At this point the embryo is a mass of cells, and not technically a fetus. And because the original genetic material of the egg cell was stripped away, the resulting embryo is a genetic twin of the adult cell donor.

I think iTeacher is using just common words. Though I was never a Bio student but the terms mentioned above are too basic.

Re: Human Cloning
Well, cloning can create clone but even then every new clone will totally a new personality.
