because need something that can churn out power between now and the time when we develop high-capacity batteries that can hold and disperse electricity when the sun is not shining and the wind is not blowing. plus, the navy has had safe nuclear power plants on ships for years and so has france and japan.

+0 Destiny is already written vs. I write my own destiny

The destiny of every person and every thing is already written, and was already written before the foundation of the world. No one who observes the clockwork motions of the planets and their satellites in the solar system can doubt that. And furthermore, you can be sure that there *is* Somebody Upstairs who not only cares, but has it all worked out, right down to the last detail.
+3 Destiny is already written vs. I write my own destiny

There is a maxim the says “Do your best and God will do the rest”. Meaning that although destiny is in God’s hand we as person endowed with free will and freedom of choice is the one who is invited to complete book of our own destiny. That means when God has all it figure out for us we still is the determinant of that destiny written for us, we are invited to complete the blank areas of the book of life, because we still have to write our own destiny in line with what is written. The apple is already there in front of us ready for picking and we must do our part by doing the act of picking that apple. So I would say we also have a share in writing our own destiny.

Human cloning can bring no good to the society that attempts it (or even allows it). It contributes to de-humanization–the notion that human life is no more dear than any other form of life, and is reducible to a mere commodity.
Merely because one can do a thing, is not sufficient reason to say that he must do that thing, or even that he may do that thing. Society owes it to its own posterity to lay down the law: do not tamper with the stuff of life.
Besides: by what arrogance does anyone seriously believe that he can improve upon the Work of the Master?
+2 We already have a over populated world.
+1 if we are cloned, then one disease can kill off a huge population since the population shares the same genetic code.

Throughout history, ignorance is the most constant cause of human stupidity. We can actually see a microcosm of this in todays culture. Children in modern america are raised with poor sexual education. Parents are not comfortable talking about this subject with their children, hence children are forced to live with their own imagination when it comes to this subject. This imagination often leads them astray. Many kids make it through this just fine, by first putting a toe in, then a foot, then a leg, and then perhaps jumping right in. It’s the kids who deliberately abstain until they’re 23 who have the real problems in their marriage later.
Likewise, there is no reason to maintain our own ignorance. Eventually, humans will be cloned. It’s not a question of if, only when. Therefore, the more knowledge and experience that can be gained incrementally and carefully now will prove invaluable in the future.

+1 Life is not sacred. This is a biased opinion expressed by the living, who have a vested interest in perpetuating this fallacy. If the dead could be heard from, they would not hold this opinion, quite the contrary, and since they greatly outnumber the living, by majority we would reverse this idea and see that cloning humans is a perfectly legitimate waste of our time here on earth.
