Human Cloning: Is it Ethical? The pace at which scientific research has heightened in the twenty first century is matchless. In the vaguest human knowledge, nobody would have imagined the possibility of penetrating the core of the universe, unveiling what constitutes a human being. Cloning, the laboratory-aided replication of a strand of Desoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) that is used to produce an identical being, exemplifies sweeping developmental technology, which toys with the very existence of human life. Consequently, scientific concepts and practices that had been deemed as impossible a few decades ago are gradually becoming reality. Nonetheless, such sophisticated scientific discoveries bring with them social debates on what is moral or amoral as far as human ethics are concerned. There are constant questions regarding how the cloning practice should be carried on. Strong proponents of human cloning like Dr. Richard Seed once suggested that given chance, cloning might someday help humanity upend the aging process and reverse incurable ailments like heart attacks (Pence12).
