Cloning could be the tool used to grow nerves or the spinal cord back again after severe injuries. Those who suffer from such injuries, like Christopher Reeve, might one day be able to get out of their wheelchairs and walk again. The above list only scratches the surface of what cloning technology can do for mankind. The suffering that can be relieved is staggering. This new technology heralds a new era of unparalleled advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.

In 1860, the great English physicist James Clerk Maxwell found that the laws of electricity and magnetism could be summarized in four simple equations. Less than forty years later, the world was filled with radios, automobiles, trains, light bulbs, and factories. Maxwell never envisioned personal computers. Similarly, the power of cloning lies not only in what we imagine will be, but even more exciting, those things that we cannot at this time imagine. Works Cited Allen, William.
