It's hard to approach a topic when your belief and faith might be at stake. I am treading on dangerous waters, but how can I help myself? I might even go to Hell for such thinking. But everyone is entitled to their opinion, so here goes mine.
I was approached on my particular views of cloning. If I had the only cloning machine in the world, would I use it? Of course! Why not make use of such a scientific breakthrough? Some may feel that I am playing the role of God or that I am destroying life's original cycle by making use of such a machine. In reality, I am only preserving what is already out there.
If I were to use such an extravagant machine, it would be to clone animal species running the risk of becoming extinct. It's bad enough that I have missed out on the dodo, the passenger pigeon, and God knows what else. But why have the already endagered species become extinct and not let our future generations to enjoy it? If I were the last hope of an endagered species to survive, then it will exist.
I would also use the cloning machine to clone human organs and tissue. Don't misunderstand me for I would not like to clone humans as a whole. I find that sort of cloning to be sacrilegious. But, imagine all the lives that can be saved my cloning a human heart. I say heart as a starting point, but there is so much more that can be done. We can also counter cancer and tumors that bring nothing but pain and suffering. I would clone the body part the person is struggling with cancer and replace it.
I know I will get a lot of rebuttal by God's followers. They will tell me that I am irreverent by performing such actions. My question is, in reality where have I gone wrong?
Isn't God the one that put us here?
Isn't God the one that gave us our knowledge and the power to grow and expand to better ourselves?
If God was the one that gave us our knowledge, and the ability to learn, then why would he be against something that in fact was created by Him?
These are just a few questions to consider analyzing. Having already analyzed them and knowing where I stand there is not much more for me to say or argue. All I can say I'm sure of is, "Let's start cloning!"
