| I agree with you to some extent, but I think you are embellishing somewhat - not all embryologists agree that the individual human being's lifetime begins at conception, nor do they all consider this philosophy to be an irrefutable truth.
Tests can have validity because physically, the embryo is developing as it should. Until the brain begins or does form however, I am of the opinion that it is not yet an individual or being, and there are just as many people of this same or similar opinion as there are of yours.
I am for stem cell research personally, although I do not see cloning being necessary for the progression of it and neither do many experts in the field.
Human cloning has 100x more the controversy and emotion tied up in it than the abortion debate by contrast, because you are knowingly developing a human being to do tests upon and use as a guinea pig of science. Morals and philosophy aside, there are still extremely ethical implications to be considered and I do not believe our society is ready (or ever will be) to accept such a proposal in the slightest collective margin.
Regardless, these are all just opinions, so please don't go labeling people as "cannibalism supporters" or the like for expressing them. You may as well call Section 8 a "genocide supporter" going by the same method of stereotype. |
