Human Cloning: Process
built 220 days ago
In the cloning process the basic relationships of the human person are perverted: filiation, consanguinity, kinship, parenthood. A woman can be the twin sister of her mother, lack a biologicalfather and be the daughter of her grandmother. In vitro fertilization has already led to the confusion of parentage but cloning will mean the radical rupture of these bonds.

To describe the process of destructive human cloning as therapeutic, when the intent is to create a new human life that is destined for destruction, is misleading. However one would like to describe the process of destructive cloning, it is certainly not therapeutic for the clone who has been created and then disemboweled for the purported benefit of its adult twin.

It is feared that human cloning would be cruel, because the process may result in a large number of miscarriages and deformities before a human could be successfully cloned. For instance, it took 272 attempts to create Dolly. Even then, the child could not be guaranteed ongoing good health.

The use of cloning to produce "Dolly" the sheep has prompted a public debate about cloning humans. Cloning is the process of creating an embryo from the DNA of a single animal. If carried to term, the embryo develops into an exact genetic double of that animal. This issue quickly became linked with the issues of abortion and embryo research.

[F]or humans, the process of cloning humans the gene is needed to be first isolated from the genome and this DNA sequence is copied into a smaller piece of DNA, for example a plasmid. This separation makes complex beings simpler to reciprocate through cloning.

The source of this abhorrence seems to be the image of a clone as some sort of grotesque sub-human, a monster conjured in an underground laboratory. The description of the electric jolt used to jump-start the cell-division process that became Dolly certainly lent itself to such fantasy.
