Is Cloning Unethical in Today’s Society?
"Public hostility to human reproductive cloning may be based on an illogical and transient fear of a new technology." BioNews quoting the British Medical Association
The 20th Century saw the most remarkable advancements in the field of science, with the likes of Albert Einstein and Louis Pasteur bestowing mankind with their extraordinary discoveries and inventions. But the concept of cloning, even though very contemporary, has left the world more surprised than it ever was. Cloning is a recent breakthrough in medical science, which has completely revolutionalized the whole concept of biotechnology. The story starts when a group of British scientists cloned Dolly (the most famous sheep in the history of the world), in 1997.
In so doing those scientists set off a spark as well, one that has traveled around the globe setting off fierce debates about the possibilities and pitfalls inherent in this brave new world, a world where it is now suddenly and surprisingly possible for scientists to create exact genetic copies of large mammals -- perhaps including, someday, humans.

The Adverse Affects of Human Cloning
Cloning like any other field of knowledge has its pros and cons. It is basically a man's perpetual ambition to gain power to rule the world and its creatures; be they men or animals. With the cloning technology there is a fear of beginning of this mad race. Therefore, knowledge gained for useful purpose is a blessing but it must be used responsibly.
Soon after the cloning of "Dolly", a series of arguments generated all over the world, demanding laws to be formulated for the banning of cloning. And recently, along with the generation of the idea that human beings are the next to be cloned, people all over the world are debating over its legitimacy, even its very justification.
