Therapeutic Cloning

Tell me what would you do if you needed to replace an organ, but you have a rare blood type and can't find a organ donor? Therapeutic cloning could be a possible solution to save your life. Banning all types of cloning would just be completely ignorant in the long run. Stem-cell cloning is the future for helping patents heal, and get what is needed for them to go on, and enjoy their life. Through out the process of therapeutic cloning, the embryo is destroyed. Some people think since the embryo is killed that it's somewhat like murdering a human baby, but the embryo is not actually alive till a certain stage. Many people the need the help now. For some it's too late already.

  1. Couldn't another solution could be find more cures for these diseases? I agree that stem-cells are great and could save a lot of lives and need to be further studied, but finding cures for the diseases and organ problems could also help out a lot, too. I'm aware that scientists are doing this, but maybe we should keep focusing on diseases and their cures, too while still learning more about stem cells.
