I’m stuck on a Philosophy question and need an explanation.

Cloning will be the subject of our first graded discussion post and it will count towards the “course interaction” portion of your grade. This will be our first attempt at this, so let’s see how it goes!

The prompt is this: What are your thoughts on the ethics/morality of human cloning? Why?

Some things to consider. Does your opinion change if you’re referring to therapeutic cloning vs reproductive cloning, or does it not matter? If you’re on the side of no cloning, would there be circumstances where you’d be OK with it?

Feel free to respond to your classmate’s posts. I’m excited to hear your thoughts and remember, this will likely become a real debate, on a global scale, during our lifetimes.
