State of The Union

Some Links Up Front
George Bush on Cloning

I'm on my laptop watching the State of The Union address by Mr. Bush. He brings up an interesting point. Go here for more info on this state of the union address.

"The buying, selling, patenting, and cloning of human beings should be permanently banned"

The buying and selling part, we can all agree with. Stem cells have had 'breakthroughs' and soon, there probably won't be an ethical debate about it.

I don't get much about patenting human beings. Guess they are talking stem cells again

Cloning is the cool part. Humans have never been cloned before and no one could know what'd happen. Would they rebel or drive us insane. Would they be able to feel emotion as a human can. Can they replace someone completely. Cloning makes great movies, ya? For some info on cloning, go to this link.

Mr. Bush is completely against cloning as you can tell but not everyone is. I think cloning would be cool, as long as it was controlled. We already got a population crisis around the world. It could be used medically maybe. You could make a clone, then use their body parts as transplants for people. If someone dies and someone gets depressed, you could clone him/her the dead guy, cheer him/her up a little and send em' along. Then, you could kill the clone or keep it as a pet. Haha, jk. Maybe you could send them to the Moon or something. Just dump them there. I DON'T KNOW.

Could the clones become part of human life. What could clones do to society. If some dude is looking for a girl, who would he choose, a perfect clone, or an average woman. The clone obviously. Then there's gonna be a huge debate between Naturals vs. Clones. (that would make a great movie). There could be a cbay instead of an ebay. "Buy your clones today, fresh from the factory, ready to do whatever you want. Just $5,000 + shipping and handling." That would be ...interesting...

Well, just thought I'd put my 2 cents in.
