Since the birth of the first human clone baby, Eve, in the US, both ordinary people and some experts working in the field of genetic engineering have been discussing the issue of human cloning. The majority believe that scientists should have waited for the results of research done on animal cloning before using this procedure on humans. Many are not sure whether the cloned humans will grow up to be normal individuals. Despite the great advances in genetic advances, these people would rather keep to the natural way of reproduction. Scientists, however, defend themselves by stating that if they had stopped conducting genomic research, many developments in medical technology wouldn’t have taken place. It seems as if the issue of cloning will generate even more heated debate in a few years’ time as more and more humans are cloned. It seems that there is a dilemma between ethics and and the developments in medical technology.So, what do you think: is it ethical or not?

I think the question is not whether it is ethical or not.A lot of breakthrough took place despite traditional thougths. We all know that humanbeing is curious and it will do whatever comes to his mind. If he doesn't do that his grand-grand children will do.
