Cloning Aversion
Would you allow yourself lose your identity if someone made a cloned on you? Cloning
refers to the process of producing similar persons of genetically identical individuals. Every
country in this world where people live in is important and each country has its own nature and
significance. But focusing on the issues that are happening around us, population is one of the
problems concerned by the government. We all know that some scientists wants to make an
unbelievable yet a ridiculous inventions but not realizing its outcome to this society, they are
making themselves egoistic. They do not consider our planet that is over populated and holding
billions of individuals.
Poverty rises in every country, especially in some areas around the world. Allowing cloning
to be implemented can be a reason of penury. Our country does not have enough resources and
food to nourish cloned humans. This idea is psychotic, they do not think about the poor children
that can possibly suffer, is it acceptable or would it be fair to them? Radically not! This humans
deserves to have food to eat. Also, viruses and diseases is accurate in cloning and it is said to be
incurable, certainly putting other peoples lives at risk. Before supporting cloning, try to think
first about others, and then think about our family that have passed away.
Religion is an important aspect to our society and this contradicts several Catholic beliefs
as it against some theories. Cloning would weakened the value of worth in human beings. Human
cloning would undermine individuality. Would you like to be automated and to be perfect? It
diminishes the sense of uniqueness of an individual. Each person has their own personality and
characteristics and will violate deeply and widely held principles concerning human individuality
and freedom. Respect the order of nature when it comes to human cloning. The natural world gives
us such a great aspects of life and because of this, we are taking it for granted. It would be likely
installing the whole world. Persuading cloning means that we are allowing our nature to be
genetically modified and it is going to be against the nature.
Technology is greatly abused for their own purposes. Cloning would not be possible
without this. Going ahead with cloning technology makes this far more
likely. Therapeutic cloning cannot be made without reproductive cloning because methods
concerning this is highly generated by technology. It is something to do with taking cells from the
adult and trigger them directly retreat to a more primitive form without the ethical issues raised by
inserting a full adult set of genes into an unfertilized egg. Cloning is rather crude to create a
complete embryonic identical twin embryo just to get hold of stem cells to make - say - nervous
tissue without some machineries.

Taking these into considerations, I think the world would be a better place without cloning.
People have the right to have its own uniqueness of their genetic pattern. We are created by God
at His own likeness and we should respect it. We are not just imitating ones physical appearance
but completely making it as a sign of consent that you can lose your identity because of that. By
cloning, we certainly disappointed in terms of the balance in nature and history tells us that this is
not the best thing to do.
