what it you were a clone?!

I have heard about cloning all of my life, but not as a serious topic. It has always been a futuristic idea that wouldn’t even come up as a legitimate topic within my lifetime. Well, it is now and has been for quite a few years. In my opinion it is a pretty scary thing to even just think about. There are so many questions about cloning and so many myths. The main issue that is holding back science to use cloning has to do with moral and religious aspects of it all. There are so many ways to look at it. It can be used to save parts of the world but at the same time it is killing another. There are the moral and ethics behind it all with the creation factors. I don’t know exactly where I stand with it, but some people are very one sided. It is also a questionable topic because it is hard to say how far the government should get involved when it comes to the legal issues. If the government makes a decision that is controversial it may put them in an awkward position with what their morals and ethical beliefs are.

What have you heard about cloning? What are the issues that you have with it all? Should it be legalized in the U.S.? If yes should there be any restrictions?
