Cloning

Cloning is the creation of an organism that is an exact genetic copy of another. This means that every single small piece of DNA is the same between the two!
When we hear of cloning successes, we only know about the few attempts that have worked, but we don´t realize the many more cloning experiments that have failed! And even in the successful cloning experiments, problems tend to occur later, during the clone´s growth into maturity.
It may be argued that reproductive cloning benefits are the same as any other reproductive means, either when one has no other chance of reproduction or by religious motives, or even because one just feels like doing it. This is exactly when we begin to wonder if cloning should be allowed or not. So, we try to balance the weight on the scale and figure out some facts either against or in favour of cloning.
