Cloning is the artificial reproduction of cells, animals, or even human beings. As long as it concerns cells and animals, this is permissible within certain limits. But the same technique can be used on humans. This is prohibited in many countries, and for good reason.
The big problem with therapeutic cloning is that a human embryo is ‘grown’ to serve as a resource for curing another human being. How can you kill one human being shortly after his life has begun, in order to save another? Everyone has a right to life, regardless of their age. Tinkering with human tissue in this way cannot be right!
