Beskrivelse

Cloning of plants and animals is a very complicated and controversial issue. On the part of scientists, researchers, marketers, consumers, citizens, government, regulators, religious and civilisation. While the cure of cancer, HIV/AIDS, Ebola may be revolutionised by genetic engineering and herald the dawn of a new era in the world; similarly will provision of food, water and if possible cloned soil at little or no cost to estimated world populace of 6 billion, with over 3 billion classed as very poor, hungry and malnourished in Africa and Asia; and targeted population of over 10 billion by 2050 with same pattern of distribution; anything called food will go for a hungry world, whether genetically or naturally modified. Again, in the era of aging population higher than younger generations in the western world, and the need to retain and replicate sexes of same race in western world, and to avoid loss of generational lineage, coupled with increased problems of infertility arising from exposure to pollutants and professional stress, especially in the western countries; majority will opt for cloning of humans to take off stresses of motherhood, fatherhood and their respective responsibilities. Who will nurture such cloned humans?. Where will the breast milk come from required for conferring initial immunity?. Will naturally immunity be cloned as well?. How will cloned humans behave?. What will be the intelligence quotient?. Will they have complete cells, tissues, organs and systems?. What will be the future of cloned humans?. Will it wipe out biological races of man?. Will it wipe out reproductive systems of man and other animals and plants?. Will cloning of humans, animal and plants give rise to a new planet on earth?. What will be the faith of science and technology?. Can they pilot planes, captain ships, drive cars, invent, manufacture and manipulate computers and other modern gadgets?. Can they be heads of state, responsible citizens, manage nuclear stockpiles, undertake military expeditions, manage space crafts, till the land for agriculture, be genetic engineers?. Can they be teachers, mentors, engineers, medical and professional doctors, lawyers, artists, scientists?. The list is endless. These are the nuts in our heads. Nevertheless, the fact remains that man is highly expeditory species. As far as we remain human, massive expedition in mind, soul, spirit will continue. Man will even attempt to clone God. Man is over insatiable in our needs, wants and conquests. Man is a very delicate being. Very fragile, always intimidated and insecure. A little twig of the flower upsets man. Scientists are even at a cross roads on whom to trust - God, Nature, Man or Nothing. For eternity, cloning of plants and animals will remain the nuts on our heads.
