I think at some point we will have the technology to clone a human being. However, I’m not sure why you’d want to though? There would be all sorts of ethical issues. So I don’t think it will happen, even though we could.
if we can clone sheep then we cant be that far off humans. As james V said i dont think we should do this. I think even if we have the technology for ethical reasons i dont think we will ever actually do it.
One of the issues with the clone of Dolly the Sheep, was that she died at a younger age than she should have done, so that would be one issue around cloning we would have to fix. But like James V and Nuala have said there would be a lot of ethical issues, so we won’t ever do it. I must admit, I wouldn’t want it to, I like the fact I am a one off totally unique person and that no one will ever be exactly like me in personality or in their genes!
