Cloning: Right or Wrong?

Hi all! This is your 3rd blog posting assignment.

How many of you have watched the Star Wars movie "Attack of the Clones"? In the movie, there were many, many soldiers who were clones. Now, what does the word "CLONE" mean and how do we get clones? Well, here's a bit of explanation...

A clone is an exact physical copy of one “parent,” created using sophisticated scientific techniques. If you had a clone, it would be an exact physical copy of you, from your hair color to any inherited disease. Scientists have not cloned humans—yet.

Find out more about cloning from the following links and then post your views (minimum 7 sentences) about human cloning (whether you think it is right or wrong) on your blog.

All about Cloning
HowStuffWorks
National Geographic for Kids
ThinkQuest

When you post, keep the following points in mind:
- Have I stated my opinion on cloning? (Whether I think it is right or wrong)
- Have I provided enough support for my argument? Did I provide reasons for why I think that cloning is right/ wrong?
