Recommended: A dialogue about human cloning

Scientists claim that these clones are in fact, human. Therefore, these clones would have rights, meaning “normal” humans couldn't take their organs without consent. The university of Utah asks the question “why clone?”, and toward the end of their article, they state, “far-fetched views describe farms filled with clones whose organs are harvested for transplant- a truly horrific idea” (“why clone”). Implying that the idea was nixed as the public would find this evil and would never approve of cloning. Also proving that clones would have rights, as they wouldn’t just be killed off after the transplant. The main idea for cloning is that it could be used for perfect organ transplants. In the article, “Animal Cloning-A Primer in Cloning and

    Despite finding Harley’s article easier to absorb, I will be providing insight and knowledge of Scannell’s article “Dailiness” as I drew interest into his concepts and ideas behind the notion of temporality of everyday life. After Scannell’s reading, I could see myself reflecting different notions of time and ‘media time’, through his concepts of routinisation and the ‘care structures’ of dailiness I became exposed to the recurring cycle we live in.

  • A Well-Constructed Argument Analysis

    541 Words  | 2 Pages

    An explanation is a set of statements constructed to describe a set of facts which clarifies the causes, contexts, and consequences of those facts. This description may establish rules or laws, and may clarify the existing ones in relation to any objects, or phenomena examined. The first piece Bush Remarks Roil Debate over Teaching of Evolution written by Elizabeth Bumiller, is an explanation. Bumiller addresses her points using facts rather than opinions, she also says, “Recalling his days as Texas governor, Mr. Bush said in the interview, according to a transcript, “I felt like both sides ought to be properly taught.”(2), this signifies that this is an explanation and not an argument since he sees both sides instead of choosing one.

    On December 2,2015 I went to to the Lynnhaven building to receive some feedback on my agreement paper for English 111. It was a very rainy day after running through the rain when I reached the writing center room. There was a yellow note saying that the writing center was in the student center until December 4,2015. After reading the note I ran back in the rain to my car.It was to cold to walk it was raining. As I approached the student center I was told by a security guard that the tutoring lab was located on the third floor. I had walked up three flights of stairs. When I had finally reached the third floor,I walk into the tutoring lab. There were about eight tables, but only four staff members and one student. Amen had approached me asking what did I need help with today. I replied saying that I would like some feedback on my paper for English. He then pointed to the writing table and said “she can assist you with your paper”.

  • The Opposition to Human Cloning: How Morality and Ethics Factor in

    2868 Words  | 6 Pages

    If a random individual were asked twenty years ago if he/she believed that science could clone an animal, most would have given a weird look and responded, “Are you kidding me?” However, that once crazy idea has now become a reality, and with this reality, has come debate after debate about the ethics and morality of cloning. Yet technology has not stopped with just the cloning of animals, but now many scientists are contemplating and are trying to find successful ways to clone human individuals. This idea of human cloning has fueled debate not just in the United States, but also with countries all over the world. I believe that it is not morally and ethically right to clone humans. Even though technology is constantly advancing, it is not reasonable to believe that human cloning is morally and ethically correct, due to the killing of human embryos, the unsafe process of cloning, and the resulting consequences of having deformed clones.

    In an article by Gienapp (2015), he stated that as the U.S. was being created, the Framers explored various types of government. The first was the Article of the Confederation which had a lot of problems and weaknesses that needed to be fixed, it required a succession of long debates, and it caused a great deal of regional conflict. Because of this, in the hopes that it will solve most of the problems, the Framers in 1787 began drafting the Constitution as well as signed it which replaced the Article of the Confederation. There was a push for ratification of the Constitution by two parties, one supporting it while the other opposed it. What it boiled down to was there was a split by two groups, the Federalist and Anti-Federalist who verbally

    The Constitution of the United States of America is perhaps the most powerful and influential document in the world. It is the supreme law of our nation, uniquely designed by the Framers to derive its sovereign authority from the consent of the people. It is the sole source of all governmental powers, and it also provides important and necessary limitations on the government that ensures the protection of the fundamental rights of United States citizens. The Founders drafted this Constitution with the chief aim of creating a government armed with sufficient authority to act on a national level while simultaneously upholding and preserving our rights and liberties. The Drafters had the vision to see past the times of the convention

  • Clones Are Human: Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro

    882 Words  | 2 Pages

    In “Never Let Me Go” by Kazuo Ishiguro we see cloned human beings that are raised in a boarding school so that they can grow up and become organ donors. The main purpose of these kids was growing up and donating their organs one by one till they finally die at an early age. These kids were not treated as human beings. They were created in a test tube just to be a donor. The main character who was also a donor is the narrator of this story. Life should be controlled by the person that owns it and that person should make decisions how to live and where to live, clones are still human beings with soul and flesh there for they deserve human right. If they cannot get the right they deserve then cloning should be illegal unless there is understandable reason. These kids are raised in a place called hailsham, where they are taken care of so that they can stay healthy but they were not allowed to leave the school and socialize with the world till they turn eighteen and graduate.

  • Should We Clone Organs?

    575 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the greatest problems in medicine today is that many people need organs for various reasons, which are not available, and lead to a lot of unnecessary deaths. There are not enough organs to supply the need in demand. In 1997 "2,300 of 40,000 Americans" that needed a heart transplant got one; that means that nearly 94% did not receive one (Fox). I know from having heart problems myself, that if I would need to have a heart transplant sometime in the near future to stay alive that I would definitely want a cloned heart if nothing else was possible and I was able to receive one. Why, you might ask? Because I have not had a chance to live my life, and there are many other things I would like to experience, such as celebrating my twenty-first birthday, getting married, and having a family. But if we cloned human organs we would eliminate a major killer to the human race, and provide patients worldwide with a healthy cloned organ.

  • Ethical Ethics Of Cloning

    1782 Words  | 4 Pages

    Cloning has been a controversial topic since the time it was introduced, prompting questions of ethics. Although it has been unintentionally in use for thousands of years, it was first brought about in the 1960’s. As more and more discoveries have been gained since then, numerous uncertainties continue to be raised among scientists, politicians, and anyone interested in the issue. While the idea of cloning is intriguing and polarizing, there is a fine like that defines what is and isn’t ethical; it is moral to clone cells for research development and plants for agricultural desires, but it is in no way acceptable to clone humans and animals for reproductive reasons.

    Last of all, Cloning is not ethical, many religious groups look down upon cloning and think it’s not proper because they think it’s like playing God. Many scientists were mainly thinking about cloning animals and, most likely, humans in the future to harvest their organs and then kill them. “Who would actually like to be harvested and killed for their organs?” “Human cloning exploits human beings for our own self-gratification (Dodson, 2003).” A person paying enough money could get a corrupt scientist to clone anybody they wanted, like movie stars, music stars, athletes, etc (Andrea Castro 2005),” whether it be our desire for new medical treatments or our desire to have children on our own genetic terms (Dodson, 2003).

  • Biola Argument Analysis

    I would agree with you on the argument of Biola being considered a monistic university as partially true. I have experienced various questions regarding topics of opposing views to Christianity, however it doesn't’ seem that the question can be answered quite clear. It is because we as Christians are not experts in opposing views? To add to your discussion, in Langer's video lectures, he discusses the Conversational Model of Integration where we as Christians and non-Christians can discover God’s Word and God’s World together. I believe that those students who feel isolated due to their opposing views or beliefs can begin to see trust being built when we begin to have more of these conversations. I believe this provides an atmosphere where

  • The Effects of Human Cloning on Medicine

    1768 Words  | 4 Pages

    Imagine a world in which a clone is created only for its organs to be transplanted into a sick person’s body. Human cloning has many possible benefits, but it comes with concerns. Over the past few decades, researchers have made several significant discoveries involving the cloning of human cells (ProQuest Staff). These discoveries have led to beneficial medical technologies to help treat disease (Aldridge). The idea of cloning an entire human body could possibly revolutionize the medical world (Aldridge). However, many people are concerned that these advancements would degrade self-worth and dignity (Hyde and Setaro 89). Even though human cloning brings about questions of bioethics, it has the potential to save and recreate the lives of humans and to cure various diseases without the use of medication (Aldridge, Hyde and Setaro).

  • The Five Characteristics Of Argument Field

    The five characteristics of Argument Fields is that they are human creation, they are developed by people with shared goals, they develop specialized language and rules, people can belong to many fields, and a field survives only as long as it serves the common purpose of its members and can adapt and change. Ad hominem is a fallacy of reasoning where the person attacks the person rather than their argument. An example of ad hominem is making a comment about how someone can’t be right because they have stains all over their clothes. The Slippery Slope is a fallacy of appeal which reduces a conclusion beyond logic to an absurd extent.
