Human Cloning Is Beneficial To Society

Over 120,000 people in the United States are currently on the waiting list for a lifesaving organ transplant. Scientific researched has attempted to solve this dispute, unfortunately, the ethical views of society today have held us back from any scientific progression. On February 27, 2003, Congress approved a ban on reproductive cloning; stopping any hope of scientists saving our world from disease and tragic death. Restrictions on medical research are detrimental and unacceptable to the millions of people across the world who could benefit from human cloning. Human cloning is beneficial to society because it can save lives, enhance medical practice, and eliminate birth defects. The lack of research allowed in this field will eventually lead to the extinction of the human race.

Compared to the number of people in need of a lifesaving organs only 15,000 Americans are registered as an organ donor. Along with the need for a dead body …show more content…

If we were able to implement human cloning, then cancer would no longer exists. Dr. Richard Seed an advocate for human cloning, envisions a cure for cancer through cloning. Cancerous cells have rapid growth that is transmitted from the cells nuclei. Human cloning would replace the destructive nuclei with a nucleus cloned from a normal cell, stopping cancer before it has a chance to keep spreading. It is clear that human cloning has great potential to better humanity. Only research will lead to its improvement and perfection. To ban this research will result in the loss of a technology that will someday cure diseases and prevent deaths. Which is really the ethical dilemma, banning or not banning. To let this technology not be used would prevent us from improving the quality of life for all of
