Another issue that arises with genetic testing is how easily science can be manipulated for unintended purposes. It isn't that far off to imagine a government cloning human beings for the intention of building flawless fighting machines to send off to war. Moral dilemmas about medical science is not a new subject, but scientists who are actively working on human cloning have to stop to ask themselves of its validity when technology is still in its infant stage. The scientists who are proposing cloning for the sake of reproductive purposes for infertile couples must be careful of their good intentions. Modern science is just not prepared for these dilemmas.
Human cloning is a very important subject that science needs to address.
Former President Bill Clinton's unwillingness to use any federal funding to research the benefits and disadvantages of human cloning puts the United States behind the rest of the scientific community. England understands its importance and that is why they are pioneers in the science. Until these issues are dealt with and technology has prepared itself for an onslaught of human replicas, clones should stay in the laboratories and petri dishes for years to come.
